  • KeepThis game is scheduled for release this year - meaning within seven months. It was announced years ago. It is not uncommon for games to have articles even a year before release. Traveurysm (talk) 01:16, 1 June 2017 (UTC)Traveurysm
  • This article covers a sequel in a widely-distributed game franchise, being published by a well-established game studio. Traveurysm (talk) 01:10, 1 June 2017 (UTC)Traveurysm
  • All other games in the franchise - and the franchise itself - have articles. Traveurysm (talk) 01:10, 1 June 2017 (UTC)Traveurysm
  • The articles has 4 citations, however I have not yet been able to remove the Citiations Needed tag because I'm still learning my way around Wikipedia. Traveurysm (talk) 01:10, 1 June 2017 (UTC)Traveurysm

  • Keep - a Google News shows plenty of coverage into the gameplay and development of the game from many RSes. It needs to be included, obviously, but it is there. --MASEM (t) 01:54, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
  • Also a keep: WP:VGRS search [https://cse.google.com/cse/home?cx=003516479746865699832:leawcwkqifq&q=%22Star%20Control:%20Origins%22 pops up at least a dozen announcement articles, an interview, and a longform preview], sufficient to indicate notability. There might be a reasonable argument this could be merged to one or another of the articles on another of the video games in the series, but I don't think that's necessary here. --Izno (talk) 02:58, 1 June 2017 (UTC)
  • Keep: Sufficient evidence of notability -- more than is usual for a prerelease game. --Guy Macon (talk) 02:16, 4 June 2017 (UTC)
