Get Ready to Command the Stars: 'Homeworld 3' Lifts Off in March 2024

Dec 01, 2023 1:57 AM

Gearbox Publishing and Blackbird Interactive have set a course for the stars with the announcement that Homeworld 3 will be releasing on March 8, 2024, for PC gamers through Steam and the Epic Games Store. The upcoming launch comes over two decades after the release of Homeworld 2 and follows a brief delay from its originally projected February slot.

The highly-anticipated space strategy game is now available for pre-orders, offering four distinct editions: Standard, Deluxe, Fleet Command, and Collector’s Edition. The higher-tier Fleet Command and Collector’s Editions provide early access beginning March 5, 2024, along with a Year One Pass which includes new content for the War Game mode. Each edition features a variety of digital and physical bonuses, with the Collector’s Edition boasting several Homeworld 3 ship figures and other collectibles.

To celebrate the game's upcoming release, a making-of documentary is also scheduled for December 2024, diving into the saga of Homeworld 3's development. Gearbox Publishing expresses excitement for fans to dive back into the Homeworld universe, commanding the Mothership on new adventures. Development began over four years since the announcement, and now the long wait for Homeworld enthusiasts is nearing its end as they gear up to explore and conquer the galaxy once more.

With Homeworld 3's launch on the horizon, strategy and sci-fi fans are counting the days until they can embark on this epic interstellar journey, promising a blend of tactical gameplay, captivating storytelling, and the deep space exploration that the series is celebrated for.

It's really cool to see Homeworld 3 finally warp into view with a solid release date after such a long hiatus; nostalgia mixed with modern strategy gaming is gonna hit that sweet spot for us space nerds. Those Collector’s Edition ship figures are seriously tempting, too – they've got that shelf presence that's just *chef's kiss*.

It's about time the cosmos got a little more crowded with Homeworld 3 finally on approach; two decades is a heck of a hiatus, but it sounds like the strategy stalwarts are in for a real treat with those tiered editions. Can't wait to see how the developers have evolved that classic RTS magic for the modern era, and those collectible ship figures Just take my money already
