Paradox Interactive has revealed its new galactic RTS Ancient Space, due to be released for PC and Mac before the end of 2014.

The story-driven RTS is being developed by Creative Forge and features a single-player story that puts gamers in command of a fleet of spaceships exploring the edge of the known universe.

“A rich and compelling story will guide the player as they build and upgrade their fleets, and then survive overwhelming odds in deadly strategic missions,” said Paradox.

Ancient Space is billed as an “engrossing single-player campaign story with time-honored RTS gameplay for a suspenseful experience”, with multiple mission – ranging from exploration to stealth, and assault to defence.

As with most RTS games, Ancient Space will allow you to upgrade and expand your space fleet as you progress through the game.

Game features include:

Classic Gameplay: Build, maintain, upgrade, and strategically command a multitude of ships in tactical battles and missions, facing aliens, pirates, and the unknown.
Space Opera: A compelling story, performed by a stellar cast, follows the player as the fleet tackles questions of humanity and science in an epic single-player campaign.
Live with Your Choices: Each mission advances the plot, and introduces new challenges to be met by choosing the right crew and the right upgrades for the job.
