Prepare for the launch of “Arcadium – A Space Odyssey”
Get ready to explore the galaxy like never before. Indie game developer Luciano has announced that its survival roguelike title Arcadium – Space Odyssey will be coming to Steam and mobile devices in January 2026. There is also a free demo available on Steam where anyone can try the game. Also, be sure to take a look at the official trailer below to get a taste of the action to come.
Arcadium transports you to a vibrant, restless cosmos, where every journey unfolds in a fresh field of stars. Each run begins with a new arrangement of planets, resources, and threats, turning the universe into an endless tapestry of discovery. Between arriving waves of aliens, there is time to glide to nearby worlds, collect materials from their surfaces, and strengthen your ship before the next encounter. These moments of calm carry a quiet tension, like the brief silence before a solar flare.
Once the aliens arrive, the pace picks up dramatically. Vibrant swarms of hostile creatures drift and swarm through space, growing more ferocious as the journey deepens. Each species moves at its own pace, so survival depends on sharp movements, careful positioning and a steady hand. The battlefield becomes a kind of cosmic dance floor, filled with streaks of energy and bursts of color.
Progress is made by turning your boat into a personalized powerhouse. Players choose a ship, collect artifacts, improve talents, and collect items that form unusual combinations. These elements form builds that change from run to run, making experimentation a central part of the adventure. With each attempt, a new style of play emerges, driven by the unpredictable nature of the universe itself.
Arcadium invites players to roam, gather, fight, and forge their own path through an ever-changing galaxy, offering a journey that continues to unfold with each return to the stars.
