The PC version of this title has been renamed to "Titans of Space PLUS". (The mobile version is simply "Titans of Space".)
New Features:
- Tour Map: Easily jump to any part of the tour you've already visited!
- Tour Guide: A friendly character appears to talk your ear off! Work in progress and only available through Mars for now. Subtitles coming in the next update.
- Zero-Gravity EVA: Get out of your cockpit, and then use your thrusters and hands to move around the area for an up-close view of planets and moons, complete with surface labels and points of interest. Original music composed by Karim Elmahmoudi.
- Alternate Planet Maps: See planets and moons in a new way! In the below video, Mars is shown with an elevation map. For other bodies it may be something different (radar map, geologic map, etc). You can even add your own!

New Hardware Support:
- Valve Index: new Knuckles controllers supported, small tweaks for LCD displays.
- Rift S: new controllers supported, small tweaks to account for inside-out tracking and LCD display.
- Windows Mixed Reality: official support (though you still need to run through SteamVR of course).
- Launching in SteamVR mode with a Rift is no longer terrible.
- For any of these controllers, if you wish to change the control scheme, you're free to do so through the new SteamVR Input bindings editor.
Additions:
- Additional Mars tour stop, with more info, photos, and a second Tour Guide presentation.
- Updated Jupiter RDV, and included full "Jupiter" song.
- Updated or added real photos at Pan, Enceladus, Mars, Earth, and Uranus moons.
Improvements:
- Added Simplified Chinese & Japanese.
- Automatically defaults the Sitting vs Standing setting based on your height in the "Get Ready" screen, but you can still change this if desired.
- Improved Earth & Moon appearance.
- Dashboard in standing mode no longer transitions between low and high based on a specific threshold but will now detect arbitrary player heights on the fly.
- New loading screen, and running with SteamVR now smoothly loads with a progress bar. Expect load times to decrease with future updates.
- Improved controller appearance.
- After holding planets in your hands, the planet now smoothly goes back to where it was Implemented recentering for Standing mode. You can now center and orient the cockpit anywhere in your playspace.
Future:
- Still need to make a new video trailer and new screenshots
- This update brings preliminary modding support, but will polish up and go into more detail in the next update.
- Plan is to release additional Tour Guide content in small updates, and to take on board any feedback you have on the new stuff!
