2K and Firaxis games have announced Sid Meier's Starships, an adventure-driven strategy game coming to PC, Mac, and iPad.
Gamespot reveals that the game will let players control a fleet of starships as they journey through the galaxy to complete missions, protect planets and their inhabitants, and build a planetary federation.
As you trek through the stars, you'll be challenged to expand your federation's influence and reach. You'll also amass futuristic technology and take part in turn-based combat using a deep roster of customizable ships, some of which you can see in the image gallery above.
Meier says that Starships explores what happens after Civilization: Beyond Earth.
"When designing Starships, I was intrigued by the idea of exploring the next chapter in the story of Civilization: Beyond Earth," Meier said. "What happens after we colonize our new home and eventually build starships to take to the stars? What has become of our long-lost brothers and sisters from the planet Earth? My goal was to create an experience that focuses on starship design and combat within a universe filled with interstellar adventure, diplomacy, and exploration."
Sid Meier's Starships is coming in spring 2015. Please follow iClarified on Twitter, Facebook, or RSS for updates.
