You begin with a single city on an uncharted world.
Beyond its atmosphere lies the vastness of a galaxy
brimming with life, ancient mysteries, and formidable perils.
Evolve your starting city into a multi-system empire.
The destiny of your civilization is yours to shape.

Beyond Astra is an innovative real-time 4X strategy game offering a unique blend of sci-fi grand strategy, planetary city-building, and RTS combat. Easy to learn yet immensely deep strategically, it will be up to you to build the solid foundations of your empire by harnessing the wealth of your worlds and space, and to evolve your civilization across six pillars: Military, Economy, Culture, Religion, Science, and Diplomacy.

Experience a revolutionary, seamless scale: zoom from your cities all the way to the galactic view in an instant, with no loading screens. Engage in RTS combat both on the ground and in space. Clashes reward tactical thinking (slow-paced), are driven by physical ballistics, and feature fully customizable units. Play at your own pace thanks to the active pause, and master your expansion by relying on intuitive tools, such as city templates.

Playing directly on planetary surfaces anchors the depth of grand strategy into a concrete, palpable experience. Resources are localized and transported via physical trade routes. Diplomacy plays out on the ground through your Envoys. You govern billions of citizens whose jobs, travels, political opinions, and beliefs evolve organically: adapt to their aspirations and influence their ideologies to forge a prosperous empire and maintain harmony across your worlds.

Forge alliances, use tourism for cultural dominance, unify the faith of your people to trigger genuine miracles, or employ indirect tactics such as espionage, economic disruption, and destabilization. Beyond your borders, explore dozens of unique biomes and wage epic battles against towering megafauna, rival armies, and galactic crises.

Creating a real-time 4X that simulates a massive, ever-evolving galaxy with hundreds of visitable worlds is a monumental challenge. To bring this ambition to life, we dedicated six years of development to forging a custom-built technical architecture, with a strong focus on performance powered by modern optimizations.
We are an independent creator duo driven by the desire to make the space opera we have always dreamed of playing.
