Stars Reach Wiki — Sandbox MMO Guides & Professions

Stars Reach Early Access begins August 18, 2026 on Steam. The game is currently in pre-release wishlist status, so exact price and launch-day builds are expected to be confirmed closer to release. Keep an eye on our Roadmap & Updates category for the latest official timing news.

There is no single best profession because Stars Reach is classless — you can learn skills from any profession over time. For your first hours, gathering professions like Ranger (exploration), Mineralogist (mining) or Botanist (farming/forestry) give you steady materials and a gentle learning curve, while Artisan crafting turns those materials into useful gear and buildings.

Instead of picking one locked class, you progress through 40+ profession skill trees and keep a limited set of "in practice" skills active at once. You can switch which professions you practise, combine skills from different trees, and adapt your build for gathering, crafting, combat or social roles without making a permanent choice.

Yes — terrain changes in Stars Reach are permanent and the land does not heal itself. Dig a tunnel, divert a river or carve a highway and it stays that way for other players to find. The living simulation continues to react around your changes, which is why careful planning matters before you reshape shared ground.

PvP in Stars Reach is zone-based and faction-driven. Planet owners can set PvP rules and build permissions on their claimed worlds, while faction conflicts between the Servitors, the Cornucopia and humanity create contested areas. Players looking for peaceful building and trading can usually find worlds where PvP is disabled.

Official system requirements are expected on the Steam store page as Early Access approaches on August 18, 2026. Because every planet is voxel-simulated, performance depends heavily on your CPU and storage speed. We will publish verified requirements and player benchmarks in this wiki once the game is live.
