Haarlem, The Netherlands – 22 June 2016 – The second official DLC for turn-based 4x space strategy game StarDrive 2 (PC/Mac/Linux) has landed. Having released its first DLC back in March of this year titled ‘Sector Zero’, one-man-team studio Zero Sum Games is at it again and is now releasing ‘Shipyards’ today. This new DLC expands upon the base game by adding 13 new customizable ship hulls, new fighters and many more additions and features, and is available at $ 4,99.

The Shipyards pack includes:

• 13 new customizable ship hulls ranging from the smallest corvettes to two HUGE new Titan class hulls
