Space Engineers turns 13 as Hostile Encounters hits Space Engineers 2
Space Engineers’ 13th anniversary celebration is set for Friday, October 23, at 5 PM UTC, with streams on Twitch and YouTube and a promised surprise gift. Hostile Encounters has also arrived in Space Engineers 2, bringing Combat NPCs to the sequel for the first time.
Hostile Encounters adds Combat NPCs and Almagest upgrades
Players will face the Renegades and the heavier Boatmen. These enemies can patrol, take cover, react to damage, communicate threats, and fight both players and their creations. Watch the Hostile Encounters trailer.
The update expands the Almagest System with improved Locations and Contracts, overhauled ores, new Verdure flora, updated lighting, new combat effects, and new building blocks including Cables, Pipes, Armor Slabs, Interior Turrets, and decorative props. More details are on the Space Engineers 2 Steam page.
