Ubisoft dropped a surprise reveal as part of its Ubisoft Forward presentation early this morning with AGOS: A Game of Space. A space sim built for VR that puts you in the role of an AI aboard the last ship leaving Earth in search of a new home. Through physics-based gameplay you'll build modular probes and explore star systems in search for resources.

The year is 2057. Earth is doomed. In a desperate move for survival, mankind embarks aboard hundreds of ships, putting its future into the hands of artificial intelligence to guide them to a distant habitable planet in order to rebuild civilization.

As the AI operating the very last ship to leave Earth, your mission is to travel for centuries through a perilous interstellar journey to reach this new promised land. No one has heard back from those who left before you.

Discover space in VR like never before. Experience innovative and realistic physics-based gameplay to build and pilot your space probes. Explore unique star systems, scavenge resources, unlock new tools and technologies, and face the perils of space to maintain life on board your ship during this extraordinary journey to save humankind.
