Check out the latest Spacebase Startopia footage, coming to Linux PC in October

Spacebase Startopia is getting closer and during Gamescom 2020, some new footage surfaced giving us a better look at what to expect from it.

The what - Spacebase Startopia is a fresh take on the classic and much loved Startopia from Mucky Foot Productions, which originally released in 2001. They say it will offer up a mixture of a building sim with city-building and base-management mixed in with some RTS-styled skirmishes. It's due for release on October 23 from  Realmforge Studios (Dungeons 3) and Kalypso Media.

Have a look at the new footage below, with commentary by a developer:
