Want to know more about the Kerbal Space Program 2 release date? Kerbal Space Program is a cute space exploration sim, officially released back in 2015 after spending almost four years in beta. Its sequel, Kerbal Space Program 2 (KSP2), has also been in the works for some time now, with an initial release date set back in 2021. While we’ve used the word “cute” – and Kerbals most certainly are – don’t be fooled. Kerbal Space Program is one of the most realistic and well-researched space exploration games in existence.

Developer Intercept has been keen to point out that KSP2 is a real attempt at visualising what the future of space games has in store for us. The team has been working with actual astrophysicists for accuracy – right down to Metallic Hydrogen fuel and its very factually-correct pink exhaust. Moreover, Intercept has taken some of the known frustrations with KSP1 and ironed them out for its follow-up, and it could easily take the crown as one of the best PC games of this year for fans. Here’s everything we know about the Kerbal Space Program 2 release date, gameplay, and more.
