Astrobotanica announced, coming to Steam Early Access in 2025

As a seasoned gamer with a soft spot for innovative titles that push the boundaries of genre conventions, I can’t help but be intrigued by Astrobotanica. Having played my fair share of survival games and delved into the rich lore of acclaimed franchises like Dead Island, Dying Light, and Green Hell, I am eager to see how Space Goblin Studio weaves together these elements in their debut title.


Fresh off the ground, Space Goblin Studio, unveiled Astrobotanica – an intriguing fusion of survival and exploration. Set for launch on Steam Early Access in 2025.

This studio’s first game release is significant because it was established in 2024. Despite being a small team, they have grand aspirations and boast veteran developers who have contributed to popular series such as Dead Island, Dying Light, and Green Hell. The developers aim to collaborate closely with gamers throughout the development process, ensuring their product remains engaging, playable, and carries a profound message.

Check out the teaser trailer, below:


 

In the world of ASTROBOTANICA, players step into the shoes of Xel, a brilliant alien botanist from the constellation Viridiana, traveling 300,000 years back in Earth’s history during the Pleistocene era. Xel’s purpose is to discover habitable planets teeming with lush vegetation, but their journey takes an unforeseen turn when their spaceship crash-lands on Earth, leaving them stranded in a harsh and CO2-scarce environment. Players must use their green thumb to grow, study, and experiment with various plant species that can thrive on Xel’s home planet Aya, all while prioritizing immediate survival amidst the dangerous wild animals and primitive humans of the Pleistocene epoch.

2025 marks the early access release on Steam for this captivating open-world survival game that takes you back to Earth’s prehistoric era. In this tale, you play as an extraterrestrial botanist whose spacecraft crashes while on a mission to discover new plant species for your planet Aya, which is facing extinction.

Arkadiusz Woźniak, Founder of Space Goblin Studio, expressed his enthusiasm for Astrobotanica, a game he’s long desired to experience. His ambition is to breathe freshness into the survival genre by merging creative gameplay mechanics with well-loved themes. With the backing of gamers, he believes that Astrobotanica will transform into an extraordinary masterpiece, all while setting sights on future cooperative modes.

Astrobotanica is coming to Steam Early Access in 2025.
