A New Era in Interstellar Survival: Space Trash Scavenger 1.0 is Out Now

STOCKHOLM — November 14th, 2024 — Today, Paradox Arc and SquarePlay Games are thrilled to announce the full (1.0) launch of Space Trash Scavenger on PC. Space Trash Scavenger is a third-person, interstellar survival sandbox and automation game set in a series of unique, procedurally generated asteroid fields. The 1.0 release introduces a significant content update, featuring an all-new biome to explore, a creative mode, new NPCs and an ending to the story and much more. Space Trash Scavenger is now available on Steam for €19.99/$19.99/£14.99.

In Space Trash Scavenger, players are employed by the megacorporation ScavCorp. Players are tasked with building and piloting a Space Rig to scavenge and repurpose Space Trash – debris left behind from an ancient galactic war – and sell it at an intergalactic stock market with dynamic prices. Each asteroid as well as the player base itself exerts its own local gravity field, which players can travel between with their jetpack and grapple gun. In their base, players can upgrade equipment, produce food and fuel, and prepare defenses against roaming alien threats.

After entering early access last year, Space Trash Scavenger has received multiple updates, including an automation update that lets players fine-tune and automate their space rig operations, and a combat update with new entities and weapons. Now, with its 1.0 release, Space Trash Scavenger introduces even more: a new biome, a creative game mode, a re-worked NPC and quest system, new manufacturing options, and more.

Space Trash Scavenger is the sophomore game from Overcrowd: A Commute ‘Em Up developers SquarePlay Games, a two person micro-studio consisting of Alastair McQueen and Sarah Testori based in London.
