Alfonso Majarucon recently published an in-depth review of Pax Autocratica, the satirical totalitarian colony sim with FPS roguelite battles from developer Multiverse, which entered Early Access on PC via Steam on August 10. You can read his full review on Game8.
Beyond combat, political strategy and control are important for keeping your citizens in line and producing valuable resources for your colony. However, hordes of enemies and Sector Overlords stand their ground against your growing power, and it is up to you to overcome every obstacle that stands in your way.
Altogether, Pax Autocratica is a game anyone who enjoys FPS games and colony sims should actively look out for. While it’ll only be in early access on release, it’s already showing tons of promise, especially considering its mechanics that encourage abusing it. There’s also a surprising amount of humanity in the immersion, despite its themes. So, go get it; the State requires your service.
Pax Autocratica is currently available in Early Access on Steam on Monday, Aug. 10, 2026. Keep up with the latest by following Pax Autocratica on Tiktok and X/Twitter, joining the official Discord server, or following Game8 on X/Twitter.
