Most of the time, when you have a real-time strategy game, it revolves around either competitive multiplayer or AI matches. Sure, a campaign occasionally enters the picture, and it’s fun for a short while, but not the focal point. But it’s still nice to have. So, does Sins of a Solar Empire 2 have a campaign?
Can You Play the Sins of a Solar Empire 2 Campaign?
Unfortunately, for those who prefer to play a single-player campaign in a real-time strategy game, Sins of a Solar Empire 2 will not launch with its campaign. If you want to play a campaign, you must fork over a bit more cash for an upcoming expansion, which will launch with the single-player story mode and a fourth faction.
For now, the game focuses on a single-player and multiplayer sandbox. The developers wanted to keep the base game lean and more affordable than competitors in the genre.

Will the Premium Edition Include the Campaign?
Suppose you purchase the slightly more expensive version of Sins of a Solar Empire 2, the Premium Edition. In that case, it includes all the upcoming DLC and planned expansions for the 4X strategy game. You’ll receive the single-player campaign and the fourth faction included within the bundle.
It’s unclear precisely what else the DLC and expansions include, though we suspect it’ll feature plenty of new mechanics, spaceships, and perhaps additional factions.
While we would prefer to see the single-player campaign for Sins of a Solar Empire 2 launch alongside the game, The Guide Hall still can’t wait to get its hands on the core experience. You’ll find us building an empire and taking down AI!
