New Faction and Seasonal Content
The real-time strategy title ZeroSpace has expanded its roster with the official release of the Xol faction. As of October 6, 2026, players can select this new faction across various multiplayer environments, including skirmish, survival, and competitive ranked 1v1 matches. This update coincides with the launch of Galactic War Season 1, which brings structural changes to how players engage with the game's progression systems.
The integration of the Xol faction is designed to provide additional tactical variety for those participating in the new season. According to the latest update, the developers have implemented an account-wide experience and leveling system. This change ensures that progress is no longer siloed, allowing players to earn XP and unlock cosmetic rewards regardless of which game mode they choose to play. All matchmade modes now contribute directly to a player's overall Galactic War progress, creating a unified path for advancement.
Progression and Seasonal Mechanics
The introduction of Galactic War Season 1 also brings specific benefits for organized play. Alliance members now receive mechanical advantages regarding their ranking during the season. Furthermore, the update includes a series of mini-events and new items that are tied to the seasonal cycle, providing consistent objectives for the player base throughout the duration of the event.
- Xol Faction Availability: Now playable in all multiplayer modes.
- Ranked Play: The Xol faction is fully supported in ranked 1v1 matches.
- Progression: New account-wide XP and leveling system is active.
- Seasonal Integration: All matchmade modes contribute to Galactic War progress.
- Alliance Benefits: Members gain mechanical ranking advantages during Season 1.
The shift toward account-wide progression represents a significant change in how the game handles long-term engagement, moving away from mode-specific leveling to a more holistic approach. Players should note that the mechanical benefits for alliances are specific to the current season, which may influence competitive strategies as the community adapts to the new faction's capabilities in the ranked ladder.
