Belters

Crew up. Extract. Survive. Shape the frontier.

Narrative Driven Cooperative Extraction Survival Top-Down PC / Steam 1–5+ Players

What is Belters?

Belters is a co-op extraction and survival game played from a top-down perspective, set in the Kepler-16 binary star system: a distant, uncharted frontier light-years from Earth.

You're a Belter, part of a contract crew shipped out to work the most dangerous edges of known space. Your employer says the work is simple. The system says otherwise.

Something has been found out here: a volatile alien resource with the potential to reshape human energy production forever. Corporations are already fighting over it. Nobody fully understands it yet, but everyone wants to control it.

  • Mine asteroid fields for valuable ores and volatile materials.
  • Salvage derelict spacecraft for parts, tech, and answers.
  • Take contracts from rival factions, or play them against each other.

Your choices shift faction power, change who controls the system, and determine whether an independent movement rises to challenge corporate dominance.

Every run is a risk. Every call you make tips the balance somewhere.

Core Features

Everything in Belters is built around one goal: making you feel the weight of every decision.

Story-driven

Narrative is the engine. Every system serves the story. Your choices reshape the Kepler-16 system and the factions that fight over it.

Ship as Home

Your contract ship is a persistent, shared base between expeditions. Expand it, upgrade it, and make it yours.

Co-op First

1–5+ players. Designed for crews, but solo-friendly. Every role matters when the mission goes sideways.

Extract & Survive

Mine asteroids, salvage derelicts, face hostile environments. Plan your expedition, gear up, deploy, and get out alive.

Faction Politics

Competing corporations, independent factions, and secrets buried deep. Your reputation with each shapes the world and the story.

No Microtransactions

One-time purchase. Free content updates post-launch. No battle passes, no loot boxes, no nonsense.
