Bohemia Interactive has unveiled Cosmo Tales — an adventure action game in the style of 1970s science fiction that blends retro aesthetics with modern gameplay. The title launches in early access in 2026.
Gameplay and Setting
Players take on the role of a young pilot embarking on a journey with a sentient space vehicle that not only assists in combat but provides commentary on events. Cosmo Tales' standout feature is the ability to switch between dimensions on the fly, altering visual style, combat rules, weapons, and enemy interaction methods.
Players will blast through waves of enemies, battle massive bosses, and assault space stations using everything the environment provides. Each sector of the universe is designed as a separate comic book with unique characters, stories, and dramatic moments.
Visual Style and Features
Cosmo Tales promises dynamic combat, puzzles, humor, and rich visual styling — the game's space setting looks like it stepped off the pages of a vintage sci-fi comic book.
Early Access Approach
The developers explained their early access choice aims to make the game as unique as possible alongside the community, with the early access period lasting at least one year. Core mechanics are already complete, so the team will focus on new chapters and detail refinement leading to full release. The current version offers a complete single-player experience with polished gameplay and a series of challenges that test player skills and reward progression. Cosmo Tales will increase in price after leaving early access.
Players can pilot their space vehicle through Cosmo Tales on PC via Steam. The project's Steam page currently lists only English localization.
