Homeworld, the seminal RTS series is getting a proper sequel. Blackbird Interactive, founded by veterans of the original game which has done the Homeworld remasters and Homeworld: Deserts of Kharak, will be developing it.
Unlike Deserts Of Kharak which was a traditional RTS, Homeworld 3 will be bringing back gameplay like the numbered series has done- full 3D combat in space. It will take place directly after the events of Homeworld 2.
Curiously, the game has a crowdfunding page on Fig, with the goal of raising… $1 USD. Gearbox Publishing claridied on the Fig page that it’s not about getting the game enough money for development, but rather to get fans invest and have a say on the development as investors.
The game is now in pre-production and with a slated release date of 2022.
