Key Features
Major Upgrades During Early Access
Get a front-row seat as major new systems come online, including the addition of new star systems, interstellar travel technologies, colonies, multiplayer, and more. Become part of the development process by contributing feedback throughout the Early Access period and be the first to play exciting updates the moment they are released.
Improved Onboarding
Kerbal Space Program 2 will create a whole new generation of spaceflight experts who will find themselves accidentally learning the fundamentals of rocket science. New animated tutorials, improved UI, and fully revamped assembly and flight interfaces allow both experienced and novice players to quickly put their creativity to the test without sacrificing any of the challenge from the original game.
Customizable parts and new space-flight technology
In Kerbal Space Program 2, the astoundingly inventive creations that KSP is known for will be taken to a whole new level. Players will be delighted and challenged by a new generation of engines, parts, fuel, improved variants, procedural parts systems, and much more. The overhauled vehicle assembly interface includes part sorting and a blueprint view for making precise adjustments. And of course, new part coloring allows you to customize your creations like never before.
Rich new environments to explore
Unprecedented detail, variety, and realism make each celestial body a rewarding destination. Clouds, atmospheric scattering, and an all-new terrain system combine to take your breath away, from ground level all the way to orbit!
New tools to optimize your exploration of the universe
Along with other massive new UI/UX improvements, you can now use time warp while accelerating and plan complex maneuvers with ease using the new non-impulsive maneuver planner. New sphere of influence and atmosphere indicators take the guesswork out of interplanetary maneuvering!
Immersive sound design and original score
KSP 2 takes audio immersion to the next level by utilizing live recordings of a real rocket launch, VAB construction and ambient noises, systems-heavy wind effects for flight, atmosphere (or lack thereof) driven effects, and much more. The KSP 2 soundtrack has also expanded dramatically with an original score by Howard Mostrom, recorded with live musicians.

The original Kerbal Space Program is one of the most beloved games of all time and, years after its release, it's bigger than ever before. Its sequel, Kerbal Space Program 2, has been fully redesigned from the ground up to meet the demands of modern and next-generation space exploration, all while maintaining the monumental foundations of the first game. Build a space program, construct powerful spacecraft, and navigate expansive celestial bodies as you explore cosmic mysteries. Releasing in Early Access as an homage to the original game’s launch, KSP 2 will allow players to see features as they are built and provide feedback to shape this exciting game through development. New features will periodically be added through Early Access that will captivate veteran and returning players, as well as usher in a whole new wave of Kerbonauts to the ingenious and comedic world that has entertained millions.
Next Generation Technology: As the game updates progress, players will gain access to a whole new set of next generation tools and technology including new engines, parts, fuel, and much more. This new tech will not just create novel puzzles for players to solve, but will also enable new feats of space exploration within and beyond the original Kerbolar System.
Colonies: Brand new to Kerbal Space Program 2 are colonies. Colonies not only pose their own physics challenges, but also require resource gathering to build structures, space stations, habitations, and unique fuel types. Eventually, these colonies become advanced enough for vehicle construction, propelling deep space exploration and beyond.
Interstellar Travel: Next-gen tech, colonies, and systematic resource gathering all lead to a whole new level of exploration: interstellar travel. In Kerbal Space Program 2, interstellar technologies pave the way to a host of new star systems and celestial bodies, each comprising novel challenges and harboring secret treasures. Among them: Charr, a heat-blasted world of iron; Ovin, a ringed super-Earth with relentless gravity; Rask and Rusk, a binary pair locked in a dance of death; and many more to reward exploration.
Multiplayer/Modding: The technological developments made to the foundations of Kerbal Space Program 2 will build on the beloved modding capabilities of the original game, as well as deliver on the long-requested addition of multiplayer. Soon players will be able to share the challenges of deep space exploration. More details on these features will be revealed at a later time.
KSP 2 in particular, is a relatively niche-interest game whose development was seeminly laden with difficult technical problems and other REAL CODING CHALLENGES which have the tendency to make development slower and more expensive than other reliable, mass-market games.
Kerbal Space Program has spread beyond the gaming community. Just ask NASA, they are fans. Doug Ellison, who works at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, thinks KSP fills a crucial gap in communicating the science in a playful simulation context. “I think we do a great job,” he says.
This game is great for kids seven and up, not because it's violent or scary it's just pretty hard to play and isn't for kids who want to learn with their screen time. In this game you learn about physics, aerodynamics orbital mechanics, money managing, geography and much more!
The Demo version is free to download and play, and will remain so forever. The KSP Team is strongly committed to the project, and we are always listening for feedback from the players.
b) Take2 has avoided declaring the game dead - making them able to claim that game is being developed for at least couple of years. It's also not officially discontinued.
Scientific community. The game has crossed over into the scientific community with scientists and members of the space industry displaying an interest in the game, including NASA, ESA, ULA's Tory Bruno, Rocket Lab's Peter Beck, and SpaceX's Elon Musk.
For orbits, KSP is mostly accurate. The only real exception that I'm aware of is that KSP uses patched conics instead of true n-body: ships only feel gravity from the body that they're orbiting, not other bodies, so there are no tidal forces or things like lagrange points.
Valentina Kerman is the first official female kerbal and the first new kerbal on the initial roster after the original three. She is a pilot and has the "badass" flag.
Pressing ALT+F12 gave you access to the Debug Mode. In Early Access, you can toggle Unbreakable Joints, No Crash Damage, Infinite Propellant, and Infinite Electricity in the Settings Menu under General.
there is no career right now, its basicly an sandbox mode where you can play in the sandbox and do anything with all things unlocked and it cost 0 money and require 0 research ect. these features are comming in the future ( roadmap ). Yes its very dissapointing they made the game this way.
In the game, the average life expectancy for kerbals is 300 years (aging is four times slower than in real life, even though time progresses the same).
Kerbal Space Program Enhanced Edition is out now on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5! This is a free upgrade for all current owners of KSP Enhanced Edition on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 consoles.
there is no career right now, its basicly an sandbox mode where you can play in the sandbox and do anything with all things unlocked and it cost 0 money and require 0 research ect. these features are comming in the future ( roadmap ). Yes its very dissapointing they made the game this way.
KSP and KSP2 aren't really comparable due them being in a completely different state, the first is a fully fledged game with the ability to mod it to whatever you want from it, KSP2 in its current state can be considered an empty shell with just the basics and the rest yet to come (hopefully).
Equipped to handle modern PC games, the Fusion Reaver is the ideal starter PC package to get Kerbal Space Program 2 up and running. Albeit a tad more expensive than the AMD option suggested, graphics are handled by NVIDIA's excellent GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card.
