Hi friends,

We hope you have enjoyed your time with the Breachway Demo so far during Steam Next Fest. We’ve seen many of you take to the stars, and we wanted to provide some intel we’ve recovered from a wrecked pirate ship deep in space to help you survive your next run.

New players should try the Arbalest first, as its targeting systems will give you the precision to shut down enemy attacks and delay their defenses, giving you plenty of openings to unload your entire salvo of ordnance cards to deal maximum damage.

Second, you must increase your reactor power early. You can upgrade this by earning at least 125 credits from taking down enemy ships, encountering special events, or selling extra equipment you discover along your journey. This will let you increase the resources you get every turn, giving you more opportunities to use your cards.


Third, saving up your cards a turn or two can mean the difference between a normal attack and a devastating combo. Sequencing your cards to power up your attacks – or defenses – can give you the edge to survive in space. Pulse Lasers and Flak Cannons have cards that grant you additional firepower when unleashing two or more cards in sequence.


Fourth, you can equip more cards in your hand by adding crew members to your equipment. This gives you more options each turn, and it will also help you set up your combos much sooner to take advantage of openings an enemy ship will eventually leave.

Lastly, timing is everything. Keep track of your opponent’s equipment and what’s charging up and what's ready to deploy. There will be opportunities to attack or shield up, depending on what’s coming next. This will keep damage to a minimum while also giving you the openings to attack when shields are down or charging.

Good luck out there, Space Cowboy.

Hi friends,

It's time to take charge of your ship and lead your crew as you seek out the source of The Signal.

In Breachway, you'll explore the galaxy with a ragtag crew in our deck-building space roguelike, with a playable demo during Next Fest! Mix and match different loadouts for your ship, changing what cards you get based on the equipment and crew you have. Discover new and powerful card synergies, and use tactical prowess to overcome your enemies!

Watch the newest trailer here (with a special announcement at the end):

Start your journey in the Magpie – a compact space vessel equipped with an industrial laser cutter and robotic arms. Prepare for combat protocols and familiarize yourself with the ship's controls by playing through the prologue, then pick your ship chassis and take to the stars to explore the galaxy!


Jump into the Arbalest, a well-rounded ship that strikes a balance between offense and defense, or the Marauder, built for sheer firepower at the cost of precision.


Having the right crew can mean the difference between victory and defeat, as each crew member has unique skills and different equipment that can lead to unexpected and powerful combinations. Take your time looking over your deck, and devise unique combinations to dominate space warfare!


Plan your path carefully with risk versus reward in mind — battles guarantee credits and a new card to add to your deck. However, with few opportunities to repair, you could end up in an encounter with low hull health. Find paths that could lead to space stations or other Allied events to aid you as you progress. Keep in mind who your friends – and foes – are each run, with allied factions providing safe passage and enemy factions aiming their sights at you as soon as you enter proximity.


We can't wait to see what stories get uncovered as you explore a small part of the galaxy in our Next Fest demo!

See you in the stars, Space Cowboy.
