Hardspace: Shipbreaker leaving early access, joins Xbox Game Pass in May

After two years Hardspace is releasing early access. Blackbird Interactive’s spaceship salvaging game will be officially released on May 24, and will be available on Microsoft’s PC Game Pass the same day.

The announcement came alongside a trailer. On Steam, Blackbird Interactive posted a bit more information about the 1.0 update and what to expect when the game fully launches. The launch version of Hardspace: Shipbreaker will feature the finale to its campaign and well as “improved progression, economy, and upgrades.”

Here’s what else to expect, straight from Blackbird and publisher Focus Entertainment:

Final Campaign Act Added – A powerful and satisfying conclusion to the events set in motion over the course of Act’s One and Two.

Save & Load Ships – Save your in-progress salvage! No more losing value on a behemoth ship because you need to step away.

Improved Progression, Economy & Upgrades – With the help of our fantastic community, the pace of progress has been tuned to perfection

Reduced performance & stability – We have worked hard to make the game the most stable and smoothest

version.

Steam Achievements/Trading Cards/Emoticons/Backgrounds-These rewards will show off your saving prowess.

Remind me that this is the last progression reset

Hardspace: Shipbreaker, of course, will also be available for purchase on Windows PC via Steam, as well as through Microsoft’s PC Game Pass. Xbox Game Pass for Windows PC costs $9. 99 per month, but Microsoft often runs a special offer for new members: $1 a month for three months.
