Kerbal Space Program 2 is the long awaited sequel to the iconic aerospace engineering game, a rebuild of the core engine with the original assets remastered for the new graphical capabilities. It’s due to be released into Early access at the end of the week and will have only a subset of the final set of features, it’s not clear how long this early access process will be.
In early February I was invited to an exclusive early access event to play a version of the game, the costs of this were largely covered by the publisher, Private Division.

I really hope they revamp the science, I really liked the first game and bought it early access. I might buy this one after I take a look at it and see if my computer can even run it apparently lol.
For me this sequel it's look like the same as the first one. Only whit better grafic, but i don't play Ksp for the grafic.
@Scott I hope you do the KSP2 career mode series of videos. I would like to see you go to another solar system.
I love KSP but the only thing I dont like doing anymore is the manual flying.
First mod I request….move the nav ball back to center
I heard the publisher took over the game from the devs and fired basically the whole team.
YUSSSSSSSSSS!
We also noticed Scott, the lack of any form of enthusiasm for this game from you, that bad it is 🤔
I feel what was sold and what was received are very different. The game isn't ready. Like you said its a step backwards…. seemingly a large step back. It feels like ksp with lipstick and 25% the features or semi gloss polish
5:53 I actualy got to the island and crash there in tuto xD just like You Scott what the heck xD
I watched a space launch on YouTube with my niece and was able to explain everything that was happening thanks to KSP 😄
about time you went back to KSP. Thank you sir!
Wish I was still working in Noordwijk, ESTEC is a really cool facility and a nice location to launch such a game.
It's worth noting that right now they're not focusing on optimisation. By the time it gets a full release, it'll almost certainly be more performant (and hopefully the price of new GPUs will be less extortionate)
In simple words…
The game SUCKS!!
RIP Kerbal Space Program 2
Long live KSP 1
I play kerbals catastrophic failures
Played the alpha of KSP 1 in middle school after watching your videos and fell in love with the game. Its good to see you playing again.
I'm all for the bubbly female narrator for the tutorial. Fits the style of KSP, and as long as you can turn it off, I don't see it being a problem.
Honestly, I stopped watching when you quit playing Kerbal. Not to ding your science coverage but that’s just not why I watched this channel.
I can only imagine how honoured and excited the development team were when all these actual space industries took notice of their little space game 🙂
I love your videos and I love kerbals. But I must say that the current state of the game is unacceptable, optimization, very poor texture quality in VAB. transparent trees and stones. A rover driving on the grass changing colors, and many many other things. Don't make excuses for early access because I see it as an excuse for everything. So much money for something like this is sheer theft.
KSP2 is utter bullshit and the devs have lost a fan
thank you for teaching me how to fly safe
KSP is not just a game. It is a cultural phenomenon, a touchstone influencer the way Star Trek is not just a tv show. It made people WANT to become astronauts, engineers and physicists. Nobody plays Elden Ring and decides they want to fight eldritch horrors for their real life work.
Glad your doing this, KSP is why I originally subscribed to the channel!
Currently on discount on cdkeys. £36. still way to much but better than £45 on steam.
My advice is to wait. You should not pay fully working money for a non-fully working game.
KSP 1 still blows my mind for the scale and complexity of it.
Man, I have missed these KSP videos.
This looks so good , i can't wait ro play it , and multiplayer would be amazing , just how the hell are they gonna be able to get multiplayer , it'll be a monumental task to work out.
can you make a millennium falcon
Did you call Minmus BLUE???
We are back… So excited!
Love the intro music!!
The performance is beyond abysmal not to mention it has been delayed for a few years. Definitely not worth the pricetag.
God damn feels like it's 2014 again
It's a $50 dumpster fire that melts supercomputers to do less than what KSP .25 did. Breaks my heart to say it. Mobile apps have better physics and polish. All the $ was spent on hype not game.
THE OG INTRO/OUTRO THOUGH… wow what an unexpected throwback
Excellent video Scott!
Imagine being the game devs and seeing a little Kerbal actually go up into space. I bet that was a once in a lifetime feeling itself! Hell of an achievement
I don't know why people keep complaining about autostruts missing. As if bendy rockets are a natural occurrence in video games. No, the bendy joints are a feature that had to be coded in by hand. Auto-struts are a work-around to disable something they deliberately added to the game. Instead of adding auto-struts, just make the joints less bendy. (Which you can do by editing joint rigidity in the physics json)
I bought ksp 1 on console but it's so complicated on controller I can't figure it out
I actually considered taking a week of vacation to start playing on launch day. Now that I know it costs 50 bucks, is unfinished and does not run on my PC I will gladly haed of to work now.
Yeah, The squeaky kid is a bit off-putting. lol It sounds like they're aiming at kids as their target demographic. They should have got some one who sounds like an adult kerban like Gilbert Gottfried.
