Maximum Entertainment announces space simulator In Control: Rocketry

Maximum Entertainment has announced 'In Control: Rocketry', a space flight simulator developed by Electromechanical Softworks. The game is scheduled for release on PC via Steam in 2027.

Players are tasked with designing spacecraft by assembling components such as thrusters, fuel tanks, and capsules. A core mechanic involves building custom control panels by wiring sensors, inputs, and outputs to manage the vessel. The simulation utilizes realistic physics and propulsion systems, requiring players to navigate using orbital mechanics.

Gameplay includes exploring a solar system with Earth-like planets, moons, and unknown worlds. As players progress, they can unlock new parts, conduct manned missions requiring life support, or engage in sandbox modes. The game also features mechanics for redirecting and mining asteroids for resources.
