X-Force Genesis 2 delivers a lively dose of classic arcade space combat, featuring 12 challenging stages, spectacular barrages of projectiles and imposing bosses. Its familiar formula and punishing difficulty may test your patience, but fans of traditional shoot 'em ups will find plenty to enjoy.

STAR WARS: Galactic Racer swaps lightsabers for repulsorcraft and delivers a thrilling roguelite racing experience packed with speed, aggression and a superb Star Wars atmosphere, though a limited track selection and the lack of split-screen multiplayer keep this exciting ride from reaching pole position.

Mel The Space Cat is a cute, surprisingly challenging bite-sized platformer that combines colourful alien worlds, precise jumping and instant retries into a charming little space adventure perfect for short Switch sessions.

A deeply rewarding lunar colony simulator in which intricate automation, demanding colonist management, lunar exploration and high-stakes trading combine to make building humanity's future on the Moon an addictive challenge.

A beautifully atmospheric sci-fi adventure in which a luxurious station orbiting Mars slowly reveals its darkest secrets, forcing River to choose between personal survival and uncovering an unsettling truth.

A charming and gloriously silly co-op adventure that turns lunar exploration, ridiculous gadgets and genuinely clever teamwork into a wonderfully chaotic trip to the Moon.

Feeding the Future transforms Martian food from a basic survival resource into a surprisingly rich culinary economy, giving your colonists even more reasons than ever to look forward to dinner.

Star Trucker: Cultivation Content Pack gives space hauliers a wonderfully unexpected new responsibility: keeping the galaxy's crops alive. With Ada Greenway's new venture, specialised trailers, fragile biodomes, 40 new contracts, three agricultural corporations, and more than 35 customisation rewards, this is considerably more than a cosmetic detour.

Breathedge 2 once again sends the Man drifting through the unforgiving emptiness of space, armed with little more than questionable survival skills, a sarcastic AI and an inexplicably important chicken. Its blend of exploration, crafting, survival and wonderfully daft humour makes for an entertaining sequel, though its Early Access status means the bulk of the story is still to unfold.

Star Trek Online: Captain's Edition remains a hugely ambitious love letter to the Star Trek universe, blending tactical starship combat, away team missions and years of Trek storytelling into a single enormous MMO. The ageing visuals and intimidating menus can be a hurdle, but once you settle into the captain's chair, an enormous galaxy awaits exploration.
