A new expansion has dropped for Factorio

A new DLC has dropped for the iconic Factory sim Factorio.

Factorio: Space Age continues the story of the base game, exploring what happens after launching rockets into space. Essentially doubling the gameplay, this sequel style DLC adds a space twist to the game. You’ll discover new worlds, with their own unique challenges, resources to exploit, and potential for technological gains.

You’ll need to build interplanetary space platforms aka flying factories, that function as a method of transport, and you’ll need to build defenses to protect them from asteroids, and then catch asteroid chunks to turn into fuel. With 4 new planets to explore, a ton of new resources to find, new enemies and new defenses too, this is only scratching the surface of the content in the DLC.

You can start your interplanetary factory now. Find out more here
