Virtual Careers

A real career in deep space would take place over decades, but with immersive sci-fi a virtual career is much more accessible. Training courses take minutes rather than weeks and years of experience can be gained within hours.

Achieving system ratings through our online Academy provide the skills you need to join missions. Completing missions gives you experience points (XP) based on time spent in the simulator and complexity, advancing your virtual career.

Keep track your achievements through your online profile.
