Miner Wars 2081 is a 6DOF action-survival space-shooter simulation-game set in the year 2081, 10 years after the destruction of all planetary objects in the Solar System.
You operate an advanced mining ship in a fully destructible and open-world environment, which remains persistent as you complete missions or play online with others. Realism and survival are key aspects of gameplay. Inventory and the way you use resources such as fuel, ammunition, oxygen, ore, and weapons are important when surrounded by dozens of warring factions.
The gameplay is driven by an epic story and offers a choice of single player, co-op, and death-match multi-player.
The story will introduce you to many types of missions: rescue, exploration, revenge, base defense, theft, transportation, stealth, search and destroy, pure harvesting, racing, or just flying around and destroying everything you see.

Single & MultiplayerBoxshot
I would like to see a demo of this. My laptop isn't exactly good, and I wan't to see if I can play the game before I waste 15$ for a game I can't even play.
confused why this game is listed as single player since don't you need to always be online to play?
This game is a single & multiplayer game.
You should check this topic out:

Once Miner Wars 2081's Xbox version is complete, you "may" play single player offline.
However, this game is a fully online game with single player content. In the other words,
you will need to be connected to their server during whole gameplay (single & multiplayer). BTW, once Miner Wars 2081's Xbox version is complete, you "may" play single player offline.

This game has an always-online DRM (one of the worst DRM). You have to connect to their servers all the time. In the other words, you CAN"T play single player when you don't have internet.
Wait, it's not true.The comment was for DIablo3, but not Miner Wars!
It's true of both games.
So this is essentially a Descent MMO?
This game is a single & multiplayer game, but not MMO.
so the name of the capital is either rich stay, or empire day, either way it should be separated, just an FYI. Neu Berlin (new berlin) or Reichs Stadt (empire city) or would be a better name
