Make your next move count.

A living galaxy. Real-world timers.
No two neighbours play the same game.

A colony among ancient Precursor ruins

01 / EXPAND

A galaxy with real neighbours.

Scout beyond your homeworld, settle new planets and choose your allies and rivals. The same galaxy keeps moving while you're offline.

A heavily armed battleship

02 / RAID

Pick your battles.

Probe Pirate Havens and Strongholds, test your fleet in the combat simulator, then raid for loot. Fleet composition and timing matter.

Coordinated fleet operations display

03 / ALLY

Don't fly alone.

Share intel, plan joint attacks and bring allied fleets in together. Diplomacy can turn a neighbour into your strongest line of defense.

04 / ASCEND

Build toward the finale.

Barnard ends with the Gate: fund it, defend it and race to open it. Your next season starts with a fresh empire; your commander name and service ribbon stay.

05 / STAY CONNECTED

Your command, wherever you are.

Queue a build, send a fleet and get on with your day. Play on phone or PC, install the web app and opt in to incoming-fleet alerts.

A ship protected by an energy shield

06 / FAIR PLAY

Your strategy. Not your spending.

No paid resources, speed-ups or combat power. Everyone gets the same combat simulator, so decisions stay in your hands.
