Start with the official instructions

  1. Distinguish Star Atlas, Holosim and SAGE on the official home.
  2. For Windows Showroom, read Epic's Coming Soon and key-based testing notice; do not assume unrestricted access.
  3. For browser fleet play, follow the separate Holosim guide, without importing SAGE economy conditions.

This guide is based on official documentation and store review, not our installation, sign-in, gameplay, purchases or wallet signatures.

Who it suits and what to separate

For space-sim readers comfortable distinguishing development stages, not an assumption of a fully released MMO.

Showroom, Holosim and SAGE have different access and asset conditions. This search offering describes Showroom only.
