Periapsis: Gravity Slingshot

The release date for Periapsis: Gravity Slingshot was July 21, 2026, on PC. This simulation-strategy title centers on the physics of orbital mechanics rather than manual piloting. You lead humanity’s exodus from Earth by plotting trajectories that utilize planetary gravity wells to conserve fuel while expanding into distant star systems.

Success hinges on timing engine burns to achieve escape velocity and managing tight cargo constraints against weight limits. Between launches, you will deploy probes to scan for resources and establish stargates to bridge the gap between colonies. It is a calculated, slower-paced experience built for those who find satisfaction in the math of a perfect slingshot maneuver. Play this if you want a methodical space strategy game that rewards precision and fuel efficiency over reflexes.
