Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a fixed campaign may bounce off the randomly generated galaxy and changing event outcomes.
- Players who prefer a large fleet may find the five-ship limit restrictive.
- Players looking for character-focused action RPG progression may not find the fleet-centered structure suitable.
Our take on Distant Star: Revenant Fleet
The bounce point arrives at the fleet-building layer: players who want a broad armada must work within a five-ship limit, while those seeking fixed story progression face changing routes and encounter results on each run.
What is Distant Star: Revenant Fleet?
Command the surviving vessels of the A’kari fleet in a real-time strategy roguelite campaign.
Assemble up to 5 ships from 8 classes, then improve their weapons and attachments to create different combat loadouts. Travel through the galaxy system by system, encountering story situations with multiple possible outcomes. Each encounter allows choices such as fighting, escaping, or attempting dialogue, and the same decision can produce a different result on another run. The campaign leads toward a final confrontation with the Orthani and includes randomly generated routes, hundreds of attachments, and repeat playthroughs.
