Sci-Fi Management Sim Gameplay in the Final Factory Trailer

The bullet hell and RTS gameplay features of the sci-fi management game Final Factory are highlighted in a brand-new trailer that was just made public.

Never Games is the sole developer of the upcoming "sci-fi management automation sim" game Final Factory, which challenges players to build a space-faring empire. This independent sci-fi game also combines RTS and Bullet Hell gameplay to create something unique, with the goal of creating games where player creations and builds determine the gameplay. Final Factory has a variety of systems, gameplay modifications, and other elements to accomplish that.

Final Factory accomplishes that, as can be seen in the exclusive trailer below. Players build fleets and networks of space stations to conquer the universe and eventually pass through a black hole, but all of that depends on their research and strategy.

Players in Final Factory, for instance, can learn new technologies and implement them to advance their space stations, while branching skill trees determine how a player can enhance their fleet or automation. In order to explore the far reaches of space, players will be able to build Dark Star Gates and structures resembling Dyson Spheres. In order to continue the player's expansion, they will also be setting up how each station controls its automation. Players will explore new stars, planets, and black holes to find new resources, research, and so on.

In addition to the simulation features of the game, hostile aliens may attack the player's empire, factors, and fleets. When players defeat these invaders, they will be able to take research, upgrade obelisks, and ancient portals for faster travel for these aliens. This RTS gameplay combines with bullet hell combat. As of this writing, not much is known about these aliens, and it is believed that their only goal is to prevent players from expanding. Even so, Final Factory has created a cool genre mashup with an intriguing premise.

In terms of how their various gameplay systems are handled, some strategy, management, and simulation games are more geared toward casual audiences, while others are more geared toward hardcore audiences. Before its release in the summer of 2023, fans will undoubtedly learn more in the upcoming weeks and months. It is still unclear where Final Factory fits into that spectrum or if it is one of the few games that can walk that fine line.

Final Factory releases on PC in summer 2023.
