# Heavenly Bodies gameplay trailer

Developer 2pt Interactive has released a new trailer for physics-based game Heavenly Bodies.

Additionally, over at the PlayStation Blog, 2pt Interactive director Alexander Perrin showed off the game’s “Data” and “Minerals” scenarios:

Using two good arms and a cool head, you’ll use the DualSense wireless controller to control each individual limb of a weightless, physically simulated cosmonaut. These simple, yet tricky controls enable you to move around and interact with a variety of space-station modules that require delicate assembly and maintenance. Each of these scenarios can be played either solo or with a friend via local co-op.

In Data, you’ll be tasked to assemble a grand communications tower to establish a link between home and the cosmos. You’ll use your gripping hands to link the giant segments together, and a satellite dish calibration system to tune the tower to optimal frequencies.

In Minerals, you’ll take the helm of a rugged mining spacecraft designed to extract non-terrestrial soils from a nearby asteroid belt. Each extraction will require different techniques, and will test your ability to keep a steady head in a space that doesn’t sit still.

To some, these scenarios may sound straight-forward; we can guarantee that the heart and mind will be tested. For in a world without gravity, nothing is still, nothing is secure, and nothing is simple.

Here is a brief overview of the game, via its official website:

Discover the ever-changing nuances of weightless motion in Heavenly Bodies—a physics-focused game on its way to PC and Mac. Wrangle the hands and arms of cosmonauts and push, pull and twist your way through a precarious range of physically simulated stellar scenarios where, without gravity, nothing is still, nothing is secure and nothing is simple.

Beam up from mission control and visit the brave cosmonauts enlisted to work on Earth’s latest and proudest feat of space engineering. Assemble space telescopes, maintain delicate solar arrays and research cosmic botany—all with your bare (well, gloved) hands.

Heavenly Bodies is a single player game at its core, but can be equally enjoyed as a local co-op experience. Call on a friend at any time and discover the new, creative and elaborate ways to finish the task at hand.

Heavenly Bodies is due out for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC and Mac via Steam in 2021.
