Gameplay

[edit]

The game features space combat in capital ships in a randomly generated universe.[1] While non-player fighter craft and gunships are capable of three-dimensional maneuvering, the player and other capital ships are restricted to a two-dimensional plane of movement with combat focusing on using broadsides to attack and defeat enemy ships.[8][9] Similar to earlier space flight simulator games such as Freelancer, players are free to pursue various activities, such as pirating, trading, or bounty hunting, in addition to completing story missions to advance the plot.[8]

Soundtrack

[edit]

Rebel Galaxy uses licensed blues rock and country rock tracks from artists including Blues Saraceno, Nick Nolan, The Blue News, and Abbas Premjee.[10]

Reception

[edit]

Rebel Galaxy has received generally favorable reviews, according to review aggregation website Metacritic based on 28 reviews.[11][12][13]
