Jump Over the Age’s Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector, a sequel to its acclaimed 2022 RPG, is out early next year, but PC players won’t have to wait long to go hands-on. A limited-time demo will be available during the upcoming Steam Next Fest from October 14th to 21st, providing a look at the opening.
As the titular Sleeper, players venture to Hexport, the game’s first location, to repair their stolen ship. The goal is to escape before hostile forces catch up with you, which means interacting with all kinds of characters. Who you trust ultimately determines the direction of your story.
Players can choose a class and skills while putting their crew together and taking on Contracts. While familiar mechanics like dice rolls, Stress, and glitches return, players can use the new Push feature, which, as the name indicates, lets you push your luck. It may not always pan out, however.
Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector is coming to Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PC, PS5, and Nintendo Switch. It will also launch day one on Game Pass.
