Neil writes "For many, the Xbox Game Preview program is a way of allowing gamers to help shape a final product, giving the developer the necessary knowledge and insight into how to make their game the best it can be. Today, that preview program has seen an increase in its numbers, with the awesome looking Astroneer becoming available."
While initially released on PC in early access in 2016, Astroneer was eventually released on the Nintendo Switch in 2022. It was a long five years looking at this base building, space flying, survival game, and knowing it would fit so well on the Switch. Was the wait to launch into space worth it?

Space base-building with some rough edges and a lot of chill.
Danny Martinez of The Koalition writes: Developed by System Era Softworks, Astroneer was originally an early access game on Steam in 2016 with its official launch in 2019. Through those years, it has developed quite a community that enjoys the game. Once I landed on my first planet, my first impression of the game was that it’s No Man’s Sky Lite.
I tried the demo and I liked it. I just got it from the xbox store for $20.
Looks pretty neat...liked the developer streams a lot.
