Star Conflict

You play as a mercenary pilot in a distant galaxy where empires and independent groups compete over a sector filled with alien ruins and resources. Fly a range of combat ships, from nimble scouts to heavier frigates, each suited to different tactical roles. Fight in team-based PvP and cooperative or solo PvE missions, take on quests, and travel through open-space areas. You can gather resources, seek out items, and encounter other pilots, pirates, and alien enemies. Progress by developing pilot skills and fitting ships with weapons, modules, and other equipment. Crafting lets you produce ships and modules, while corporations can join battles to influence or control territory.

Pilot customizable combat ships in online PvP and PvE battles, take on missions, and explore open space in a contested alien sector.
