Initiate Countdown to Launch for Surviving Mars: Space Race
First-ever Expansion Introduces some Healthy Competition with Rival Colonies and New Mission Sponsors Touching Down on Mars
STOCKHOLM - Nov. 5, 2018 - Paradox Interactive and Haemimont Games have today announced that Surviving Mars’ first expansion Space Race will launch on November 15th, 2018 for PC, Xbox and PlayStation. With the introduction of rival colonies, players can look forward to a whole new side of extraterrestrial colonization with other settlements racing for milestones and key colonists as competitors, or issuing distress calls and trading as crucial allies. Either way, the cold expanse of space just got far less isolated with new rival colonies and new mission sponsors footing the bills.
