Dual Universe is a first person based space simulation sandbox massively multiplayer online video game in development by the Paris-based game development studio, Novaquark.
It is reported to combine elements of Eve Online and Star Citizen, as well as Minecraft, No Man’s Sky, and Space Engineers.[6] The game is set in a continuous single-shard universe, wherein players are able to fully edit the environment by building structures and altering terrain, as well as being given the ability to script the components within vehicles and other player-built objects. A heavy focus is also placed on allowing for collective social gameplay involving exploration, mining, crafting, trade, politics and warfare.
It relies on a server technology that Novaquark has termed a CSSC (Continuous Single-Shard Cluster), which allows all players to play the game simultaneously together in the same universe without the need for instancing of player zones or loading screens.
