The darkly humorous corporate satire Nonentity Galaxy, developed by Brick-Up Studio and published by 2P Games, will release on Steam on February 3, 2026 18:00 PST with a price of $9.99 and a 10% launch discount during the first two weeks. Players who buy the game will also get for free: existential crisis, dystopian poverty and a very small possibility of overcoming systemic oppression and rising as a warlord. But hey, faith is the substance of things, isn’t it?
Nonentity Galaxy is a roguelite strategy game that merges space combat and resource management with a tint of dark humour. Players take on the role of an employee for “The Company,” stuck in a dead-end job with no immediate way out. Since quitting isn’t an option yet, you make the most of it: while performing regular duties of scavenging wreckage from high-risk combat zones, you’ll get the opportunity to meet new allies, uncover privileged information, and “accidentally” forget to report valuable assets to use on your own personal ship.
However, the adrenaline rush of the illegal activities can make people feel more powerful than they are. In Nonentity Galaxy, evaluating the chances of winning is an important part of the gameplay. Players must learn to find the balance between fulfilling the Corporate requests, their own survival and the level of risk they can take on battles in order to survive.
GET OUT THERE, SURVIVE, COME BACK, REPEAT
Survival in Nonentity Galaxy is driven by decision-making. Players must choose how to reinforce their ship, which routes to follow on each mission, and when a fight is worth engaging. Planning is as important as firepower, and each sortie is a calculated gamble.
Routes offer different rewards and dangers: safer paths provide stability, while riskier ones promise rare modules and higher payouts. During combat, players must constantly assess their chances of victory, managing damage, resources, and salvage in real time. Winning a battle means little if you can’t make it back.
Between missions, players will have the chance to decide how to upgrade their ships. Components collected during exploration can be used to enhance weapons, shields, and systems, or converted into credits to spend elsewhere. Deciding how to allocate these resources is key to survival and can change the course of future missions.
STRATEGIC BATTLES ACROSS THE GALAXY
Combat in Nonentity Galaxy puts players in charge of tactical decisions without forcing them into every battle. You can let the Fleet AI handle engagements automatically, or take manual control to focus fire, reposition ships, and exploit weaknesses. Formation and positioning are critical, how you arrange your fleet affects both damage output and survival. Targeting priorities change the pace of fights, rewarding careful planning and quick thinking.
Just remember that sometimes, the smartest choice is to warp out early and preserve your fleet; dying yields nothing, but surviving lets you return to your base, upgrade your ships, and come back stronger for the next sortie.
DON’T FORGET TO PUT ON YOUR BRIGHTEST SMILE
Narrative depth and galactic politics remain central pillars of the game. Players step into the role of sneaky pilots, skimming credits from The Company and secretly upgrading their fleets while pretending to be model employees to keep their paychecks.
However, between sorties, they can rest on the Space Station bar and engage in conversations with other veteran pilots, navigating the murky “grey zones” where alliances, rivalries, and schemes unfold. Always tinged with sharp, dark humor that colors every conversation and decision.
