Stationeers Engineer a Station That Actually Works

Stationeers gives you and your co-op friends a space station to build and keep alive together. You mine ore, raise walls and pipes, balance air, heat and power, and split jobs until the base runs itself. Hard, systems-heavy fun for co-op friends who like solving problems as a crew.

Is Stationeers worth it?

Stationeers is worth it if…

  • you like slow, technical co-op games where every system matters
  • you and your co-op friends enjoy splitting roles like builder, engineer and farmer
  • you like programming machines and automating a base until it runs itself

Build a station with your crew

You and your co-op friends start with bare ground and a pile of tasks. You harvest nearby ore, process it through smelters and fabricators, then raise walls, doors, pipes and cables piece by piece. One of you welds frames while another runs power, a third sorts materials. Wall fatigue and explosive decompression keep sloppy work honest, so a well-planned layout pays off. It is slow, hands-on building where teamwork turns chaos into a working base.

Keep air, heat and power alive

Survival here is plumbing and physics. You manage temperature, pressure, gas mixtures, water and fire across atmospheric, electrical, medical and gravitational systems. A room too hot, a filter full of the wrong gas, a battery bank draining overnight — every fault has a cause you can trace with gauges and sensors. You vent rooms, mix oxygen and nitrogen, cool generators, fix leaks. On harsh planets and asteroid fields, staying breathing is a shared shift job.

Automate everything together

Once the basics hold, you stop doing chores by hand. You link machines with conveyors and sorters, wire sensors to a logic system, and write programs in assembly on integrated circuits. Farm plants and livestock as part of the same loop. Dividing the code, the wiring and the testing between co-op friends makes big factories possible.

Good to know?

Can you play it solo?

Yes. You can run a station by yourself in single player, handling building, mining and life support alone. It is the same systems-heavy survival, just with all the jobs on you.

Where do you build?

On exotic planets and in asteroid belts, with deformable voxel terrain that you mine and shape. Different locations change what you must survive, from heat and pressure to scarce resources.

What do you do with mined ore?

You refine it into construction goods through specialist machines such as smelters, centrifuges, stackers and conveyors. That chain feeds more building, so mining directly grows the station.
