If you're looking to replicate the successes of just one game, then there are few loftier goals than Minecraft, with Mojang's block building behemoth smashing all sorts of records over the last decade or more.
At the same time, there's arguably no greater comeback story in the history of video games than the tale of No Man's Sky, with Hello Games doing a remarkable job of righting a ship that for all intents and purposes looked like it was destroyed beyond repair.
So what of a game that potentially combines elements of both? Well, it's certainly an intriguing prospect, and one upcoming release aims to do just that.
SpaceCraft is an upcoming space exploration game that's set to launch into Steam Early Access during the second quarter of 2026. Developed by Shiro Games, it promises an online astral experience where players get to explore a vast galaxy of planets, mine and craft resources, design and build ships and trade with other factions and players.
If you're a fan of the sci-fi genre more generally, it really does look like a bit of a dream come true, but those additional crafting mechanics could elevate it to genuine mainstream popularity.
