The game will feature an origin story, where players will travel across an exciting campaign in the prequel from some of the original creators of Homeworld and Homeworld 2.

Like previous Homeworld games, expect robust tactical combat filled with strategic decisions that will directly impact your chances of survival.
The game is currently available for pre-order on Steam for $49.99 and those that pre-order will get Homeworld Remastered Collection for free.
