Space strategy game Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes has a demo out now

Battlestar Galactica is one of the best space sci-fi series around, and now you have a chance to explore more in Battlestar Galactica: Scattered Hopes. A demo has just been published on Steam ahead of the full release sometime in Q2 2026.

They also recently put up a gameplay overview: Direct Link Completely out-gunned constantly, Scattered Hopes is a game of survival as you repeatedly jump between locations while making various decisions that could result in some pretty big changes to your run each time.
