What is Star Atlas UE5 Game pre-alpha release?

The Star Atlas Showroom is the first playable product of Star Atlas built in Unreal Engine 5, allowing players to interact with the metaverse in full 3D with blockchain-integrated gameplay. It showcases cutting-edge visuals using Nanite and Lumen technologies, and serves as a development hub where new features and play modes are continuously introduced.

Choose Your Character

You no longer play as a preset character. Instead, you can now choose any Crew Member you own to use as your avatar in the Showroom

There are two ways to get a Crew Member:

  • Buy a Crew Pack from the Star Atlas Marketplace and open it to reveal one or more randomized crew
    Browse Crew Packs
