Overview

Developer: ATMTA, Inc.
Blockchain: Solana
Genre: Space Strategy MMO
Status: In Development
Platforms: PC (with future plans for expanded access)

At its core, Star Atlas is about survival, strategy, and domination in an open-world metaverse. Players can align with one of three factions, the MUD (humans), ONI (aliens), or Ustur (androids), each with unique advantages and goals. The game offers a deep blend of exploration, combat, and economy, allowing players to own everything they build, earn, or discover.

Unlike traditional MMOs, Star Atlas integrates blockchain technology, meaning ships, land, resources, and even player-built structures have real-world value and can be bought, sold, or traded on the marketplace.

Game Lore & Setting

The Star Atlas universe is a vast and uncharted frontier, where three powerful factions battle for dominance over space’s scarce resources.

• MUD Territory (Humans): A resourceful and industrial faction focused on technological expansion.

• ONI Region (Aliens): A multi-race coalition that thrives on diplomacy and advanced technology.

• USTUR Sector (Androids): A highly advanced AI civilization with superior spacecraft and battle tactics.

With the discovery of the Star Atlas, a celestial map revealing the universe’s greatest riches, the race for control has led to endless war, alliances, and betrayals. Players must choose their faction wisely, as their role in this ever-evolving universe will determine their survival and success.
