Stockholm, Sweden; October 27th, 2025 — Keepsake Games, a Swedish development studio founded by veterans from Hazelight, Mojang, and Coffee Stain, are thrilled to announce that their spacefaring adventure, Jump Space, is getting its first major Early Access update, titled “The Vendor Update”.

Jump Space enjoyed a successful launch, selling over 430,000 copies in its first three weeks and debuting among Steam’s top five global best-sellers in its opening weekend. The Keepsake Games team is excited to build upon this success with Update One, the game's first major content drop.

The Vendor Update will offer players a host of exciting new gameplay and expand mission variety including:

Introduction of Melee Weapons – Get up close and personal with enemies thanks to newly added crowbars and wrenches. This will be the first of multiple melee weapons to be rolled out in Jump Space, with a dedicated block and deflect system being developed to lay the grounds for advanced melee combat mechanics.

Brand New Sectors – Players are invited to explore even more of the galaxy! Eight new handcrafted levels will be introduced, featuring new objectives for crews to take on. Delve into new outposts on desert planets and defend a ringed outpost from a Legion ship siege.

New Hangar Vendors – Familiar faces Vosk and Bozze are taking on a brand-new role in the hangar, they’re now fully stocked vendors! Vosk is ready to sell your crew Artifacts that give exciting upgrades before each mission, while Bozze has a range of weapons and gear to make sure players are ready to fight.

Sector Modifiers – Encounter some chaotic speedbumps on your galactic journey with additional sector modifiers including: Materia Disruption Field, High Legion Presence and Ion Rift to spice up your runs.
