The world of Stardust Odyssey will be much different than usual

Stardust Odyssey VR is a PlayStation 4 title that should stand out in the sci-fi genre by designing a world that goes beyond conventional.

This is how the creators of the upcoming Stardust Odyssey describe their title, so perhaps it's best to start with these words: "The central idea behind Stardust Odyssey was the desire to avoid the conventional, hard science fiction world. The goal was to create a science fiction world inspired by the style of the 80s and the work of artists such as Moebius and Jean-Claude Mezieres, with the emphasis being on fiction rather than industrial and advanced technology. "

Stardust Odyssey has not yet received a specific release date, but it will be a VR title for the PlayStation 4, mostly inspired by Silk Road.

It will be traded throughout the universe, and planets and civilizations will not, as the authors themselves say, be technologically advanced places, but will primarily refer to cultures of primitive peoples. There will be plenty of desert landscapes as nomadic civilizations have served as the main inspiration, and the spacecraft itself will be operated quite anachronously. It will look like an ordinary ship and fly on sails.


Apart from some general overview of the title, there was not a lot to learn about Stardust Odyssey during State of Play. The whole gameplay is practically unknown, and the only thing that is known about it is that the game world will not be completely peaceful, but there will also be threats that it will have to deal with.
