"Inspired by BioShock and System Shock 2, Void Bastards is a revolutionary new strategy-shooter that will test your wits as well as exercise your aim. Can you lead the misfit prisoners of the Void Ark through the derelict spaceships and myriad dangers of the Sargasso Nebula?"

TechRaptorAustin SutherMay 20199.5/10Void Bastards is a work of art, not only in its visuals but also in gameplay. The progression is strong and the gameplay is a blast. Exploring each derelict ship was a treat, and I can't wait to dive back into the Sargasso Nebula for more fun.

GameSpewRichard SeagraveMay 20196/10Void Bastards did make me laugh, even though I ended up hearing the same insults more times than I care to remember, and its art style is simply sumptuous. It’s just a shame that it’s so repetitive.

Marooners' RockAlex McCumbersMay 20206.4/10At the end of the day, I do wish continued success for Blue Manchu as there is a ton of charm in the style of Void Bastards. The bricks have been laid for a truly stable endeavor.
