After a decade in Early Access, Planet Management God Simulator The Universim is finally set for its full 1.0 release. Developer Crytivo revealed today that the God Sim will leave Early Access on January 22, 2024. Alongside a ton of improvements, the full release also introduces the space age which gives players access to advanced technology including the all-new planet cracker.
The God Simulator has been in development for ten years now, including a successful Kickstarter campaign back in 2014 that got almost $400k in backing. With the full release of The Universim, players will be able to explore an unlimited amount of space and colonize as many planets as they wish, each with their own conditions and challenges. Some planets will be abundantly resource-rich providing a great opportunity to expand and prosper with your civilization. Over 600 new voice-over lines have been added to enhance the now-completed storyline.
The Universim has become quite popular among the simulation community, with over half a million Steam wishlists and over 6,000 reviews giving it a Very Positive rating.
I played The Universim years ago and loved it, and with all the content they’ve added in recent years, this is the perfect time for me to give it another go. If you’re looking for a multi-planet faring God Simulator, you should definitely check it out.
The Universim fully releases on PC via Steam on January 22, 2024.

These days, fighting games live and die based on their online playerbase, and yet, Mortal Kombat 1 did not launch with crossplay support. Thankfully, that will change relatively soon though, as NetherRealm Studios announced in a recent livestream that crossplay between PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5 will be coming in early 2024 (perhaps unsurprisingly, the ill-fated Switch version is left out).
Less than a week after The Day Before’s disastrous launch on PC, following multiple delays and becoming the most wishlisted game on Steam, the makers of the zombie-survival shooter have announced their closure.
