Galaxy is a sci-fi sandbox adventure game with RPG elements. The developers call it a "swashbuckling space adventure" and emphasize the edge of space, rebel quality to the game, drawing inspiration from such things as the TV series Firefly and space operas. The game isn't just a sandbox, not a strategy game, and not just a shooter it's a blend of genres that lets you choose how you wish to play. Will you be a pirate? Will you salvage and trade? As hinted at in the title, rebellion in some form is encouraged in this universe, which will let players buy and fly seasoned ships, meet many new characters, and make decisions that impact the procedurally generated world they're in.

Be a Space Rebel | Part adventure, part RPG, part space opera. You get to decide how you will play this sandbox game, but swashbuckling, roguishness, and exploration encouraged.
Explore the Galaxy, Make it Work for You | Galaxy sets you in your own procedurally generated sandbox game, letting your explore as you wish, set up trade, steal, and even meet all sorts of characters and make decisions that will have a real impact on you and your entire experience.

Get Talking | Galaxy's RPG style elements encourage conversations with NPCs you meet all over the galaxy, and maybe even as you plan to double cross them. You can develop relationships with in-game factions, further impacting play. Whether you're a pirate, trader, or simple snarky space cowboy, you can choose how to approach the game's story and characters.

Three thousand years in the future humanity has formed an empire in the stars called “Second Galaxy.” In this Second Galaxy, five regimes have emerged, each eager to further colonize the universe. Players in this open world MMORPG have the freedom to play any role they like from explorer to bodyguard, miner, or merchant.

The universe of Second Galaxy has 4,961 galaxies to explore that are filled with dark matter, wormholes, space stations, and more. In those, nearly 5,000 galaxies are more than 50,000 stars across 1,000 light years. There are five types of spacecraft with over 150 classes to pick from. Customization of your ships is impressive as well with more than 1,000 types of tactical equipment, 3,000 spacecraft components, and 5,000 technological upgrades.

You’ll be able to see thousands of players on the screen engaging in real-time combat. Thanks to their advances in technology the game can support half a million concurrent players. Quite impressive for a mobile game. Yes, all of this is in a mobile game.

Second Galaxy will be launching globally on iOS and Android on July 5th. Though it’s being called a soft launch, so maybe it’s just a beta? Honestly, does anything mean anything these days? From the sound of it though, they mean for it to be a launch.

This gorgeous looking mobile game looks like it could give EVE a run for its money. If you’re looking for more information about the game you can find them on Facebook or on their official site. Pre-registration is now available as well.
