Factorio's Space Age Expansion Launches with New Worlds and Features

The highly anticipated DLC introduces five new world types and a major update to the base game, enhancing the factory simulation experience.

Factorio's Space Age expansion adds five new world types, including space platforms and planets with unique environmental challenges.
Players can explore new terrains such as a volcanic world, a biomechanical jungle, and a frost-covered planet requiring advanced technologies.
The expansion is accompanied by a free 2.0 update for the base game, which includes a new fluid system and improved AI for trains and worker robots.
The DLC is priced at $35, matching the cost of the base game, leading to some criticism despite its overwhelmingly positive reception on Steam.
To access the expansion, players must enable the appropriate mods through Factorio's main menu, integrating new features like Elevated Rails and Quality.
