Cosmic Adventures Await: Why Starfinder: Afterlight is Your Next Must-Play CRPG!

The stars are aligning for science-fantasy fans! Starfinder: Afterlight, the upcoming party-based Computer Role-Playing Game (CRPG) from Epictellers Entertainment, is set to launch us into the vibrant, high-stakes universe of Paizo’s beloved Starfinder tabletop RPG. If you’ve been waiting for the perfect blend of tactical combat, deep narrative choices, and a galaxy-spanning adventure, prepare your starship—this is the game you’ve been looking for.


What is Starfinder: Afterlight?

Starfinder: Afterlight is a single-player, story-driven CRPG that brings the rich lore and mechanics of the Starfinder tabletop game—specifically utilising the rules of the recently released Starfinder Second Edition—to life.

Set against the backdrop of the Pact Worlds, a galaxy-wide threat is looming, your captain is missing, and it falls to a ragtag crew of unlikely heroes (you and your companions) to save the day. Think of it as Baldur’s Gate 3 in space mixed with the high-octane crew dynamic of Guardians of the Galaxy.


Key Features That Will Excite Every Sci-Fi RPG Fan

Tactical Turn-Based Combat with the Three-Action System

The game promises a faithful adaptation of the Starfinder 2e ruleset, which is built on the acclaimed Pathfinder 2e foundation. This means:

  • Three Actions Per Turn: Every combat round, your characters get three actions (Move, Strike, Cast a Spell, etc.), leading to incredibly fluid and tactical battles.
  • Iconic Classes: You’ll command a party featuring iconic Starfinder classes like the Soldier, Envoy, Operative, Mystic, Solarian, and Witchwarper, each bringing a unique blend of magic and technology to the fight.
  • Alien Gear and Levelling: Gear up your crew with powerful tech and mystic artefacts as you level up and customise your abilities.

A Crew of Legends (and Misfits)

You won’t be alone on your journey! The game features a roster of up to six unique companions, from android assassins to mystic prophets.

  • Deep Personal Stories: Each companion comes with their own complex history and moral dilemmas.
  • Choices Matter: The bonds you forge (or break!) will impact their destinies and, crucially, the fate of the galaxy. Yes, you can even pursue romances!

A Branching, Consequential Narrative

Epictellers Entertainment emphasises a story-driven experience where your actions truly have weight.

  • High Replayability: The campaign is estimated to be 40-60 hours long, but with a branching narrative and choices that lead to hundreds of unique paths, the replay value is immense.
  • Factions and Consequences: Factions will remember your deeds, and companions will judge your heart, ensuring that choosing “salvation or profit, mercy or vengeance” has lasting repercussions.

Exploring the Vast Pact Worlds

Prepare for an interstellar adventure! The game will take you to famous locations across the Starfinder setting:

  • From the crowded, neon-lit sprawl of Absalom Station to the eerie, undead empire of Eox.
  • The universe is a place where digital gods and cosmic dragons coexist, offering a wild and wondrous backdrop for your quest.

A Stellar Cast and Team

The excitement is amplified by the talent behind the scenes. Epictellers Entertainment, in partnership with Paizo, has secured a stellar voice cast with voice direction by none other than Neil Newbon (Astarion from Baldur’s Gate 3). This commitment to quality voice acting and narrative is a clear sign of their ambitious vision for the game.

The Stars Are Calling

Starfinder: Afterlight is currently an indie project that successfully launched its Kickstarter campaign, demonstrating massive community excitement. With an Early Access target of Q2 2026 and a full release planned for 2027 on PC via Steam, this sci-fi CRPG is gearing up to be the next big adventure for anyone who loves deep character customisation, strategic turn-based battles, and compelling, choice-driven storytelling.

Keep your sensors tuned for more details—the journey to save the galaxy is about to begin!
