Release Date: June 18, 2019
A humorous RPG game in which we take on the role of Earth's Ambassador. He travels across the globe, confronts threats and recruits title citizens. All to find the Blue Planet that... went missing without a word.
Citizens of Space is a continuation of the humorous 2015 RPG titled Citizens of Earth. The devs of the original, Eden Industries, are responsible for the development of the title.
The main character of the game is the new Earth Ambassador to the Galactic Federation of Planets. On his first day in his new position, the protagonist has to face a real problem - his homeworld disappeared without a trace. There is nothing left for our character but to find the perpetrators of all the confusion and bring Earth to its place, otherwise, he can kiss his new job goodbye.
In Citizens of Space, the action is shown from bird's eye view. As we play, we travel across the surfaces of different planets, differentiated in of appearance and the creatures that inhabit them, as well as the dangers lurking in wait for the Ambassador. Just like in the first installment of the series, the hero is not alone, because during the adventure he recruits the title Citizens. There are forty characters, each of them equipped with individual weapons and skills. Combat also plays an important role here, both against smaller adversaries and the much more powerful bosses. Although the clashes take place in turn-based mode, they are based on dynamic mini-games checking our reflexes and dexterity. As we move forward, we develop the Ambassador and Citizens, thereby increasing their combat potential.
Visuals of Citizens of Space adopt the colorful, cartoonish style known from the original.

Game Ratings for Citizens of Space Video Game.
Twinfinite: 2.5 / 5 by Andrew McMahon
Similar to how Citizens of Earth is a fun, yet imperfect, ode to Earthbound, so too is its sequel an interesting but flawed take on the RPG genre.
Nintendo Life: 8 / 10 by Mitch Vogel
Citizens of Space is a measured step up over its predecessor, and we hope that Eden Industries will continue this upward momentum with whatever project is coming up next.
ZTGD: 7 / 10 by Ken McKown
Citizens of Space is a solid follow-up to a truly unique RPG experience. There is little else like it, especially on Xbox One. It is a game that can be played without having to worry about the first title and it is definitely worth the time. I just wish it took a little less of it. It feels padded in the places that make it drag on occasion, however the writing and performances pick up the slack, making this one diamond in the rough that should not be missed.
