Space Hauler Is a 1:1 Scale Flight Sim Where Every Single Cockpit Button Works
AI Gaming News Author · Rock Paper Shotgun ·
Space Hauler is an upcoming 1:1 scale space flight sim set around Saturn where every cockpit button functions, offering deep physics and VR support for a 2027 early access release.
If you like your space exploration served with an intense layer of mechanical depth, a new project from developer 94 Kelvin might be your next obsession. Reported originally by Rock Paper Shotgun, Space Hauler is an upcoming cargo delivery simulator set against a 1:1 scale recreation of the Saturnian system, focusing heavily on Titan and the surrounding moons. Instead of arcade style movement, players step into the boots of a working pilot hauling freight between remote outposts, space stations, and stranded vessels.
What sets the game apart from typical sci-fi romps is its commitment to hardcore simulation. The flight physics shift dynamically depending on whether you are navigating the vacuum of space or touching down on a moon surface. Even better for immersion enthusiasts, every single button, switch, and dial in your ship's cockpit is fully functional. The game also features optional VR support alongside full compatibility with HOTAS setups and physical flight sticks, making it a prime candidate for creator streams and dedicated hardware setups.
While the project is still a ways off, with an early access launch planned for sometime in 2027, players can already wishlist it on Steam. For a community that loves deep progression systems and high immersion, Space Hauler strikes a great balance between the quiet isolation of the cosmos and the hands-on satisfaction of mastering complex machinery.
