From Press Release:
PARIS (Oct. 16, 2025) — Publisher Dotemu (MARVEL Cosmic Invasion, TMNT: Shredder’s Revenge) and independent studio Alt Shift (Crying Suns), in collaboration with Universal Products and Experiences, today unveiled a gameplay deep dive into Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes. The innovative, narratively rich tactical roguelite pays tribute to Battlestar Galactica’s enduring themes of survival and adventure, delivering a challenge that rewards adaptive thinking when faced with a relentless enemy. Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes will launch on PC in early 2026. (https://store.steampowered.
As seen in Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes’ new footage, you must command and lead your fleet’s escape from the end of humanity’s settled worlds, known as the Twelve Colonies. Each run brings unpredictable scenarios, forcing you to juggle scarce resources, and resolve in-fleet conflicts while strategically investing in your crew, gear, and crucial meta upgrades, and potentially even expose imposters within your ranks. Each turn you take brings your fleet closer to an inevitable ambush from the Cylons, a robot species on an unwavering quest for humanity’s extinction.

Once the deadly Cylons make contact with your forces, a battle begins. True to the franchise’s idea of persevering against an overwhelming enemy, Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes’ skirmishes center around a simple but key concept of survival: “resist until you can jump.”
Deploy fighters from your hangars and direct them in real-time combat scenarios to dispatch the Cylons, minimizing damage to your central ship while wielding its onboard defenses against your gravest threats. Endure until you can flee to another sector of the galaxy, choosing your destination (and potential in-game rewards) based on your most dire needs.
Each run in Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes offers new lessons as you adapt to defy your unlikely odds of survival, and your tactical options broaden as you unlock additional squadrons, weapons and traits as well as meta upgrades to benefit future runs. Make decisions that meaningfully alter your fleet’s fate, lead your fighters through high-risk battles, and jump to new sectors before the Cylons turn your ships into astral debris. With humanity’s haven in the Twelve Colonies now uninhabitable, your steadfast tactical leadership is your crew’s only hope of surviving the journey to humankind’s last hope, the Battlestar Galactica. So say we all.
Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes builds on Alt Shift’s celebrated narrative tactical release in the 1 million+ player Crying Suns, evoking Battlestar Galactica’s striking universe through beautifully detailed artwork.
