Attention, pioneers!

Satisfactory is a first-person factory-building game released into early access by Coffee Stain Studios in March 2019 via the Epic Games Store. Heavily inspired by Factorio, players take the role of a Pioneer, an employee of the FicSit Corporation dropped onto an alien world to gather resources and manufacture materials for the as-yet mysterious "Project Assembly". To do so, they'll need to mine ore, smelt ingots, and construct and assemble ever more complex machine components, gradually building a massive factory (or a group of multiple factories) to automate the process and sending ever-increasing quantities of items up a Space Elevator to the waiting FicSit facilities in orbit.

The game can be played solo or in online co-op; there's no hard-coded limit to the number of co-op players, but the developers only seriously tested up to 4 players at a time. Being an early access game, there are still a fair amount of bugs and yet-to-be-added content. The game currently exists in two versions: 'Early Access', which contains the most stable updates, and the 'Experimental Branch', which is used for testing updates before they get pushed into the main game.
