Hello Engineers!

To celebrate the Fieldwork Update of Space Engineers, we’re thrilled to launch another exciting community challenge:

🔬 The Field Work Bunker Competition

Inspired by the recent Fieldwork Update, this competition is all about putting your engineering skills and scientific imagination to the test. We’re calling on all players to design and build a high-tech scientific bunker – a place where planetary researchers, explorers, and engineers might survive and thrive while conducting fieldwork on alien worlds.

đź§Ş What We’re Looking For:
  • A functional and immersive scientific outpost or underground bunker
  • Realistic features like labs, research rooms, power and oxygen systems, and defensive structures
  • Bonus points for storytelling: who uses this bunker? What kind of research happens here?
🏆 Prizes Include:
  • 1st Place: Space Engineers Goodies: Hoodie, T-Shirt, Mug, Mouse Pad and Set of Posters; Keys to all Space Engineers DLCs and Space Engineers 2
  • 2nd Place: Space Engineers Goodies: T-Shirt, Mug, Mouse Pad and Set of Posters; Keys to all Space Engineers DLCs and Space Engineers 2
  • 3rd Place: Space Engineers Goodies: Mug, Mouse Pad and Set of Posters; Keys to all Space Engineers DLCs and Space Engineers 2
  • 4th Place: Space Engineers Goodies: Mouse Pad and Set of Posters; Keys to all Space Engineers DLCs and Space Engineers 2
  • 5th Place: Space Engineers Set of Posters; Keys to all Space Engineers DLCs and Space Engineers 2
  • 6th-10th Places: Keys to all Space Engineers DLCs and Space Engineers 2

Whether your design is rugged and industrial, sleek and futuristic, or a hidden sanctuary beneath a hostile surface we want to see your vision! Fire up your welders and show us what it means to be a true Space Engineer in the field.

Good luck, and happy building!
