What better way to celebrate at this time of year than letting players loose in Santaā€™s Workshop, and put a festive hat on Lizard Doggo! Thatā€™s just one of the Christmas treats awaiting players in the critically-acclaimed, immersive, open-world factory simulator Satisfactory. No wonder it powered to #10 of the Steam250 for this year, the official top 250 best Steam games according to gamer reviews as it launches a festive Christmas update!
For an overview of the game, Satisfactory is a vast first-person factory builder set on an exotic alien planet. Playable for 1-4 players, Satisfactory focuses on space exploration and the freedom to build complex, unlimited structures. You can see the launch trailer here.
