Mankind has expanded its reach into the distant corners of the solar system. Near-space vessels, heavy industry on the moon and thriving colonies on Mars extend humanity s empire into the great blackness of space. 

With the earth s mines nearly spent, industrialists rely on the wealth of the heavens. Our solar system s massive Asteroid Belt is a mother lode of resources, just waiting to be torn free and shipped home. "The Belt" is the humanity s newest frontier, as wild and untamed as any that man has faced. 

Ambitious prospectors blast off with little more than an Outpost Module and a Mining Tool, to tear the hide off these asteroids and find their fortunes. This bonanza doesn t come without risks. Mere survival is a daily struggle. Asteroid storms bombard the surface, destroying Outposts, and hostile claim jumpers can appear at any moment. 

For the brave, there is a fortune to be made. For the foolish - there is only death. Welcome to the new Gold Rush. 

Search, Scavenge, and Build: Mine rare minerals from fallen asteroids and scavenge abandoned outposts to craft and upgrade your technologies. 
Defend and Upgrade Your Base: Build a highly customized base with a huge range of functional components.
Get The Right Suit: Armor up in a hi-tech industrial space suit that allows miners to explore a vast area of their inhospitable environment. 
The Vehicle: Roam and scavenge the asteroid in an upgradable rover, equipped with survival systems including oxygen, energy, and cargo space. 
Tools and Weapons: Powerful mining equipment can rip the raw ore from fallen asteroids, and can also be used for self-defense against rival miners and claim jumpers. 
Maintain Life Support: Survival itself is a challenge in this hostile environment – manage your oxygen, and energy levels to survive. 
Vast Terrain: Explore an enormous asteroid to discover rare resources, rival miners, abandoned camps and more. 
Defend Against Asteroids: Life in the belt is dangerous, miners must craft powerful turrets to shoot down incoming asteroids. Accurate shooting will yield more lucrative ore.
