December 10, 2024 - Hooded Horse is excited to share that the next update for Eridanus Industries’ excellent real-time tactical space fleet combat game NEBULOUS: Fleet Command is almost ready for deployment. Launch the alert fighters because Carriers are coming to the game on January 10, 2025!
The highly anticipated “Carrier Update” adds a completely new dimension to the game’s approach to hard sci-fi space warfare. The titular Carriers arrive in the form of both dedicated hulls and self-contained modules for existing hulls for both the game’s factions, and with them come launchable craft across a range of archetypes. Each faction gets three unique spaceframes, with a seventh spaceframe representing a shared design.
Whether you’re deploying scouts, missile bombers, utility craft, or Top Gun-style fighters, each spaceframe is customizable via the dedicated in-game editor. Craft can also have multiple customizable loadouts as well, which can be selected and refitted should players need to switch up their tactics mid-battle.
To accommodate the existence of smaller spacecraft, this update will also make a barrage of other changes, such as rebalancing ship weapons and defenses, introducing new anti-craft missiles and missile launchers, and even bringing a new line of unguided weapons designed to be launched from craft, such as cluster bombs and rockets.
NEBULOUS: Fleet Command is available on PC via Steam Early Access for $29.99 / £24.99 / 29.99 EUR / ¥3,980.00. A press kit is available.
