Team17 and Small Impact Games have announced Marauders, a retro-sci-fi looter shooter for up to 4 players.
Marauders is set in an alternate 1990s where the Great War never ended. Humanity has now expanded into space using gritty, diesel-punk technology. Players are mercenary pirates that launch raids against targets of opportunity. Board enemy ships, loot everything you can, and get out alive so you can spend your spoils on better gear and upgrades for your own ship.

You can find a rundown (via Steam) below:
Marauders is a tactical first-person multiplayer shooter set in an alternative 1990s where The Great War never ended, Earth has been industrialised to its breaking point, and many have fled to the stars. As space mercenaries known as ‘Marauders’, players will gear up and pilot their ships through hostile galactic reaches to salvage anything they can and survive by any means necessary. Throughout each match, players will be able to upgrade their gear on-the-fly as they uncover troves of loot from daring raids on hulking frigates and embark on tense touchdowns on moving asteroids. They’ll also have to keep a close watch for others looking to do the same and end their expedition with a bullet.
