The days of space colonisation are still a long way off, but at least we have video games to allow us to practice for when it finally becomes a possibility.
Just released on Steam after several years in development, Planet Explorers is an open world adventure game in which you are tasked with building a new home on a distant planet after your ship crash lands.
Set in the year 2287, it features a huge 17X8km map filled with a ton of side quests to complete in addition to the main story. There's also countless alien creatures to encounter, so it seems like this is a world that we'll certainly be immersed in for a very long time.
