- The studio's attention will focus entirely on preparing the sequel.
Squad announced the end of support for Kerbal Space Program. Update 1.12.2 is the last one to be released. Developers admittedly point out that they may release minor hotfixes if needed, but all their attention will now focus on Kerbal Space Program 2.
The popular KSP launched in 2011 and quite quickly won the player's hearts thanks to the combination of charming design of the eponymous engineers and hardcore approach to atmospheric and space flight simulation. The main task in the game is to develop a space program from scratch, which is eventually transformed into a rocket, which we conquer the cosmos with.
In update 1.12.2 we get, among other things, the newly developed LV-T30 Reliant and LVT-45 Swivel engines, as well as a new design element - the ground anchor. Plus a host of bug fixes, the full list of which can be found here.
In 2015, the title left early access, and a year later it hit last-gen consoles. In June, this year, the version for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S was released, with the option of a free update for owners of PS4 and Xbox One versions. Kerbal Space Program 2 will be released in 2022 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
