Captain Forever Trilogy Gets Free Multiplayer Update

Captain Forever Trilogy

Farbs have released a free co-op multiplayer “Captain Together” update for their ship-building shooter, Captain Forever Trilogy.

Containing three games (Captain Forever, Captain Successor, and Captain Impostor) tasks you with building spaceships from the wreckage of defeated foes. While you can bolt on the parts almost anywhere, the ships are physically simulated, meaning the ship’s overall shape can affect how it flies.

The update adds a new game to the pack, called Captain Together. This is a special multiplayer mode based on the features and mechanics of Captain Successor, and supports up to four players via local co-op, or Steam’s Remote Play feature.

You can read more about the update here, and you can find a rundown of the game (via Steam) below:


Build. Fly. Build. Shoot. Build.
In Captain Forever you build spaceships while you are flying them. There’s no cumbersome editor. Just blast an enemy ship apart, grab a piece with your mouse, and bolt it to your ship. Done. What’s more, everything is physically simulated so ship design has a huge impact on flight characteristics and combat capability.

All Three Games.
Captain Forever Trilogy includes the games Captain Forever, Captain Successor, and Captain Impostor. Forever is the original, award winning game. It’s vanilla. Successor adds tons of new modules and ship types. It’s a whole ice-cream shop. Impostor blows the formula apart by allowing you to instantly clone any of the game’s enormous, fantastical ships. It’s an all in ice-cream shop food fight.

Better Than Ever.
With its brand new renderer, Trilogy is faster, slicker, and shinier than ever. What’s more, the new wing shaped modules massively increase the scope for cool looking ships and thoughtful design. New audio has been added, and best of all, acclaimed novelist Cassandra Khaw has pored over every line of text in the game, rewriting most and adding many more. The Captain Forever universe is now exactly that – a universe. And it’s all here in Captain Forever Trilogy.


Captain Forever Trilogy is available on Windows PC via Steam.
