About

In Starbound, you create your own story - there’s no wrong way to play! You may choose to save the universe from the forces that destroyed your home, uncovering greater galactic mysteries in the process, or you may wish to forego a heroic journey entirely in favor of colonizing uncharted planets.

Settle down and farm the land, become an intergalactic landlord, hop from planet to planet collecting rare creatures, or delve into dangerous dungeons and lay claim to extraordinary treasures.
Discover ancient temples and modern metropolises, trees with eyes, and mischievous penguins. Make use of hundreds of materials and over two thousand objects to build a sleepy secluded cabin in the woods, a medieval castle, underwater arcade, or even a space station.

Starbound has been built from the ground up to be multiplayer and easily moddable. You have the tools to make the universe your own and modify the game to suit your play style - add new items, races, planet types, dungeons, and quests - the possibilities are limitless.

Add-ons
Each DLC is estimated with the same model as a game, then summed — a modeled figure, not reported DLC sales.
Sums Steam only; Xbox, GOG publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.
Updates

For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,419 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Great game, made even greater by fantastic mods
Well its was a long up and down road of how things played out with this one. When I first got it did enjoy it but as updates it and...there past being dark...I can not give a thumbs up to it. With there update forcing some story you that is dull kinda killed it for me the last time I tried to play it. And sure mods do help keep a game like this alive...but kinda expected when they kinda used free labor to make the game to begin with. But even thinking back to the early days with this game all I did was explore find an easy planet to make a base on go get end game gear and that is kinda it. Even updates made it so its just better to loot and buy gear rather then craft it anyways eliminating the idea of going mining mid to late game.
luv it
Loved the game back in the day. Watched it back in Alpha on yt and I loved playing it all the years. Mods are epic and keep the game alive. Sad story about development but meh what gives...
Косые, кривые хитбоксы, интерфейс дерьмовый, завязка идиотская, модельки картонные. Разрабы забили болт на свою игру и совсем ее не развивают Игра совсем не зацепила и не заслужила своих "хороших" отзывов
как терария только проще и больше
新手引导做得跟没做一样……没有MC经验以及理化生基础极差的我前期完全是坐牢式开荒,卡在很多乱点才知道怎么操作的设备和矿石资源上,wiki也只是起到一个展示的作用,去贴吧直接问可能效率还高点。 总之强烈谴责拉我入坑的管生不管养的亲友,进篮服务器的话可能偶遇丢给你一堆高级物品就跑的老玩家,每一条支线的boss都好难打,不建议战斗白痴单独进传送门,因为我已经失去5000多像素点了(T_T) 大声赞美每一位贡献mod的创作者,你们的汉化和玩法丰荣其实是starbound的再生父母(确信
