If the debut trailer is anything to go by, chaos is on the menu for Starnaut. Developer Crim announced the spacey adventure for PC, with Early Access to kick off in February 2024. The roguelike action game has you playing as an astronaut on a solo space expedition that lands them in the multiverse. From there you’ll be blasting “endless incoming enemies” that can be deceptively cute and drop what seems to be an equally endless number of coins.
Sony hides trailer for Star Wars: KoTOR remake and deletes announcement tweet

References to the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake have been taken offline by some of PlayStation’s primary social media accounts, amid a report of troubled development.
Billed as a collaboration between developer Aspyr Media and production partners Lucasfilm Games and Sony Interactive Entertainment, the game was announced as a timed PS5 console exclusive during a PlayStation Showcase event in September 2021.
However, it was recently noticed that the tweet from the main PlayStation Twitter account announcing the game has been deleted, while the title’s reveal trailer has been made private.
This has caused speculation that the game, which was also announced for PC and expected to be released on Xbox Series X/S at some point too, could be the latest casualty of restructuring efforts at Aspyr’s parent company, Embracer Group.

Embracer, which acquired Aspyr in 2021 and placed it under the Saber Interactive label, said in June that it was implementing a “restructuring program” which would see some game studios closed and some projects cancelled.
The announcement followed what the company said was the unexpected collapse of a $2 billion deal with a mystery partner, which was later reported to be the Saudi government-funded Savvy Games Group.
The Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic remake has reportedly been beset by problems over the last couple of years. Bloomberg claimed last summer that Aspyr had stopped working on the game and that the future of the title was up in the air.
Embracer had earlier confirmed that Saber Interactive was also working on the game, and some of Bloomberg’s sources said they believed it was possible Saber had taken over the development of the project entirely.
Embracer CEO Lars Wingefors refused to comment when asked to provide an update on the status of the game during an investor Q&A in May.
Embracer shut down Saints Row developer Volition last month and is said to be considering selling Borderlands studio Gearbox.
