Roadmap

This is a short summary of the future plans for Factorio.

Refer to Roadmap/History for past versions of the roadmap and to upcoming features for a more detailed and up-to-date list of upcoming features.

Factorio 1.1 (stable since January 26 2021)

• The 1.1 release is the final release of the vanilla game.
  • It will be maintained, so bugfixes, simple modding interface additions, or minor tweaks can happen, but that's about it. [1]

Factorio: Space Age

This is a short overview of Space Age, for more details see Upcoming features.

Factorio: Space Age is a paid expansion pack that will release on October 21, 2024 according to Friday Facts #418 - Space Age release date. It consists of 3 official mods which can be enabled and disabled at will. It will cost $35.00 USD, or the same price as the base game.

• Space Age, featuring 4 new planets, new buildings, new enemies, space platforms, and a reworked tech tree
• Quality, allowing drastic improvements to buildings and items as a "vertical" growth
• Elevated Rails, for improved rail routing and better intersections

Quality and Elevated Rails are both prerequisites for Space Age, but can be enabled on their own.

Factorio 2.0

• Factorio 2.0 is a free update to the base game that will release alongside Space Age. It features numerous quality of life improvements, performance optimizations, and other small tweaks. Some known features include:
  • Improved control of train systems
  • Better blueprint building
  • Better flying robot behaviour

Expensive Mode

The expensive mode will be moved from the base game into a separate mod. [2] It will be part of the base game purchase, however. [3]
