Nexus Legacy

Nexus Legacy is a persistent online space strategy game about rebuilding civilization after the fall of the Nexus. Starting with a single planet, you develop an economy, expand across the galaxy, research technologies, build fleets, spy on rivals, raid worlds and compete for strategic regions. Planetary importance, fleet movement costs and the risks of mistakes shape your decisions.

Build your empire

Develop mines, laboratories, shipyards, orbital infrastructure, colonies, moons, outposts and sector stations. New colonies grow your economy, but expansion also adds borders that need defending.

Command your fleets

Design fleets for scouting, raiding, transport, defense, expeditions, mining, sieges and alliance operations. Their cargo capacity, travel time, fuel cost, range, escort composition and intelligence about targets all affect how well they suit a task.

Research and prepare

Research unlocks buildings, ships, military systems, economic upgrades, logistics tools and late-game technologies. Progress is fast at first, while higher research levels require more investment and planning.

Spy, raid and defend

Espionage reveals resources, fleets, defenses and weaknesses before you commit ships. You can attack to destroy fleets and infrastructure, or use ground forces and specialized support ships to raid worlds for resources.

Alliances and exploration

Form alliances, coordinate attacks, defend allies, trade resources and compete for territory as the balance of power shifts across multiple universes. You can also send fleets into expeditions, pirate zones, deep-space anomalies, wormholes and dangerous regions where the risks and rewards are uncertain.

A persistent galaxy

The galaxy continues to change while you are logged off: fleets travel, colonies grow, rivals scout, alliances make plans and wars unfold over hours, days and seasons. The game includes long-term seasonal progression, along with logistics, commanders, planetary defense, piracy, markets and wormholes.
