A few new features this time around as well as some more bug fixes and balancing! Let us know in the comments or on the forums what you think.

Difficulty Settings

When you start a new game you will be offered four different difficult settings - Rookie, Regular, Veteran and Elite. The Regular level is the same difficulty as the game was before and the other levels have less enemies to contend with (Rookie) or more (Veteran, Elite).

Key Rebinds

One of the most commonly requested features from players is the ability to rebind keys as the standard setup we use may be different from what you are used to. You can now rebind keys by accessing the main menu > options > controls.

Weapons & Attachment Stats

And quite possible THE most commonly requested feature from players is the ability to see specific information on each weapon and attachment! We're excited to be able to release this today - it's going to be useful for a lot of players. Having watched loads of Let's Play videos, we've seen plays tend to avoid the more unusual attachments such as the Assault's Reaver Mode (which is awesome - you should totally try it out!) and favour safer options. Now players will be able to make better choices about the setup of their fleets. Read the full patch notes on our blog. http://store.steampowered.com/app/335830

In Distant Star: Revenant Fleet, you take control of the last remaining ships of a near-destroyed A’kari fleet, and must rebuild your forces as you battle through ancient, galactic battlefields towards a final showdown with the Orthani.

Build your fleet of up to 5 ships (from a choice of any combination of 8 classes) and upgrade their weapons and attachments which give you new and improved skills to use in combat. With hundreds of attachments to choose from, each class has many different possible loadouts.

Traverse the galaxy one system at a time - each step of the way you will face unique story events, each of which has multiple outcomes that can change with each playthrough. Choose whether or not you enter combat, flee or try to talk your way out of difficult situations - but don't think the same choice next time round will have the same outcome!

All set within a beautifully designed universe with an eerily atmospheric soundtrack - Distant Star: Revenant Fleet is a game you'll be playing again and again...
