But humanity soon discovered they were not alone… Take on the role of a Raider, in the service of the Human Empire, as you traverse a treacherous galaxy in the far reaches of space.
Millions of settlers arrived in Neterun’s systems and a vast factory called the Metal Mother Facility was built to harvest this valuable resource. In the far future, the second age of human civilisation reached the distant Neterun galaxy and discovered powerful energy called Sonic Matter. Sci-fi blends with horror elements in a story-rich adventure based on exploration, fast-paced dogfighting, trading and ship crafting, with customisable flight simulation and intense multi-stage boss battles. Whether Briggs abandoned ship because of bad weather or whether there is a more sinister reason for their disappearance, will never be known.Merge Games will publish the team’s game on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC, and thankfully, Haunted Space‘s Steam page reveals more of it: „Experience the next generation of space combat in Haunted Space. To this date, the fate of Captain Briggs, his wife, child and crew of seven remains unsolved. Captain Morehouse split his crew and sailed the Mary Celeste to Gibraltar. He ordered a boarding party to the Mary Celeste and his crew found a deserted ship in seaworthy condition. Almost a month later on the afternoon of December 5, she was spotted drifting somewhere between the Azores and Portugal by Dei Gratia, another brigantine on an Atlantic crossing.Ĭaptain Morehouse of the Dei Gratia knew Captain Briggs of the Mary Celeste to be a capable sailor and was suspicious.
What we do know is that the Mary Celeste had sailed from New York on Novembound for Genoa with a cargo of alcohol. Her fate has passed into maritime myth thanks in large part to a short story by Dr Arthur Conan Doyle, the writer and creator of Sherlock Holmes. No ghost ship compendium would be complete without the tale of the brigantine Mary Celeste. What’s more, there is no record of the SS Orang Medan in Lloyd’s Registry, leading some to conclude that this ghost story is pure fabrication. Later reports contradicted this supernatural tale, however, with a 1948 newspaper article citing a survivor who blamed the deaths on a leak of its deadly cargo - sulphuric acid. An engine room fire then caused the ship to be abandoned and eventually sink, taking its ghastly secret, and any chance of an autopsy investigation, to Davy Jones’ locker. Rescue workers who boarded the ship discovered to their horror that the crew members were indeed deceased with their bodies contorted and arms outstretched as if fending off an attacker, but without any signs of injury. Possibly whole crew dead.” Before help could arrive, a second message was radioed in with just two words: “I die.” The legend goes that in 1947 a cargo ship off the coast of Indonesia put out a distress call with the words: “All officers including captain are dead lying in chartroom and bridge. One of the most notorious ghost ship stories, the tale of the SS Ourang Medan is shrouded in mystery. The last logbook entry was in 1762 - the ghost ship and her crew had been lost at sea for 13 years before being found. The icy figure of the ship's captain was discovered sitting at his desk, writing in his logbook, pen still in hand. Her captain had, unluckily decided to try and use the then nonexistent Northwest Passage (which superyacht Rosehearty has since cleared) to return home. The five men who boarded the derelict ship in 1775 were confronted with a ghostly sight the entire 28-man crew was below deck, but frozen to death.
The three-masted schooner departed from England in 1761, but was found off the coast of Greenland in 1775. The Octavius was one of many to meet such a fate, but the grim scenes found on board was what made the story of this ghost ship particularly terrifying. The search for the elusive passage claimed the lives of many ambitious sailors in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries keen to find an alternate trade route to Asia, their ships would become lodged in Arctic ice, sealing their fate in the Great White North.

Although the earth's warming temperatures mean that the Northwest Passage is now free (albeit not easy) to sail through, this was not always the case.
