Reassembly Fields Expansion

Reassembly Fields Expansion adds Gravity Wells and Slow Zones to the universe, changing how you navigate, fight and explore. New ship-building blocks, a utility binding system and music by composer peakssound also expand the game.

Gravity Wells

Gravity Wells contain stars with special properties that pull ships and loose objects into orbit. You can steer around them using elliptical and hyperbolic orbits, as well as Hohmann transfers. Combat in these zones changes as you account for the stars’ gravity. Some stars are harmless, while others emit radiation that gradually damages your ship, leaving it vulnerable to enemies and the surrounding universe.

Slow Zones

Slow Zones hinder ship movement and weapon projectiles, changing how you fight other ships and explore. Nimble maneuvering can also leave pursuing enemies stuck in these space-clouds.

Ship-building blocks

The expansion adds three types of blocks:

• Afterburners: propel your ship forward using a limited fuel supply.
• Burst Shields: provide temporary protection from projectiles on all sides.
• Decouplers: let you detach sections of a large vessel, for a quick getaway or to inconvenience pursuing ships.

Utility bindings

You can bind specific blocks to specific keys, giving you more control over how you attack and defend your ship.

Additional music

Composer peakssound, previously known as Peaks, adds tracks made with modular synthesizers and outboard gear. The music has a rougher, darker and groovier sound, with twisted vocals, tape hiss and drum machines across extended tracks. You can listen to each album on its own or combine them.
