From Press Release:
May 29, 2026 – Hooded Horse and Eridanus Industries are excited to share that the opening act of sci-fi fleet combat game NEBULOUS: Fleet Command’s new narrative campaign is out now. Launch a daring raid behind enemy lines with a rag-tag collection of ships, and fight through the first 16 missions in a bid to create an opening for the main invasion fleet.
Set in a star system steeped in rebellion, the campaign comprises 16 networked missions, ranging from tactical puzzles and small skirmishes to major clashes against enemy forces. Starting with a small group of ships – including an aging Fleet Carrier – players will need to recover and rearm other Alliance ships in the area, moving from mission to mission. As enemy responses escalate, they will also need to manage strategic reserves such as fuel, ammo, and maintenance crews to reach the end.
The campaign supports co-op multiplayer, and this update also introduces an in-game campaign editor that lets players create their own campaigns featuring everything from mission scripts to custom cinematics and triggered events. Other changes include a graphics upgrade, with many textures recreated in 4K, plus updated decals, improved damage shaders, and more!

The game is also being localized for the first time, supporting French, German, Spanish, Polish, Turkish, Ukrainian, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Korean, and Japanese.
NEBULOUS: Fleet Command is available on PC via Steam Early Access for $29.99 / £24.99 / €29.99 / ¥2,980.00. A press kit is available.
