If you’ve ever wanted to take a break from the high-stakes, fast-paced action of games like No Man’s Sky or Starfield, Star Trucker offers a refreshing alternative. This new game, available on day one through PC Game Pass, puts you in the cockpit of a space-faring big rig, challenging you to transport cargo across the galaxy with care and precision.
Unlike other space games that only touch on courier missions, Star Trucker fully immerses you in the life of a galactic hauler. You’ll navigate marked space highways, avoid debris, and adhere to speed limits to keep your cargo—and your wallet—safe. The gameplay mirrors the measured pace of Euro Truck Simulator but with the added complexity of zero gravity and space thrusters.
Beyond the challenges of space trucking, you’ll also need to manage your ship’s maintenance, ensuring systems like the gravity compensator stay charged, lest you find your cargo and coffee floating around the cabin. As you explore new sectors of the galaxy, you can relax with a unique soundtrack or pick up job tips from other truckers on the radio.
Customization and upgrades play a crucial role as well, allowing you to enhance both the performance and appearance of your space rig to tackle tougher routes and more demanding deliveries.
Star Trucker is currently available on Steam with a 10% discount until September 17, and it’s also accessible through PC Game Pass, making it easy for subscribers to dive into this cosmic trucking experience at no extra cost.
