One week after its official reveal, Farlane has surpassed 8,000 Steam wishlists as players continue to discover the upcoming sci-fi adventure from solo developer Zeljko Kos of Siscia Games.
Known to many players as one of the co-creators of the Starpoint Gemini series, Kos spent the last several years developing city-building titles such as Patron, Aquatico, and most recently Pompeii: The Legacy. Falane marks his return to the space genre.
The reveal trailer introduced players to a frontier region of space where they command a Nomad-class Frontier Runner and its crew on the edge of known civilization. Early reactions from players have highlighted the game's atmosphere, comparisons to classic titles such as Freelancer, and its focus on living aboard a small spacecraft with a trusted crew.
"I've always loved stories about small crews surviving together aboard a ship," says Zeljko Kos. "Farlane is my attempt to capture that feeling while combining exploration, trading, salvaging, combat, and crew management into a single experience."
In Farlane, players will explore a dangerous Frontier made up of 22 interconnected star systems. Activities currently planned include:
- Combat
- Trading
- Mining
- Nebula Seed Extraction
- Salvaging
- Exploration
- Smuggling
- Escort Missions
- Delivery Contracts
- Repairing Space Infrastructure
- Repairing Ship Systems
- Contract Work
Unlike many space games focused on commanding ever larger vessels, Farlane centers around a single upgradable ship with a fully walkable interior. Players will be able to interact with crew members, perform repairs, manage equipment, and gradually transform the ship into a home among the stars.
Development is ongoing, with additional gameplay footage and development updates planned in the coming months.
Farlane is currently planned for release on PC in 2027.
