Stargate Invasion is out now: a big new game for Stargate fans

Stargate Invasion, a fan-made total conversion mod for Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion, is now out online. It’s not a new Stargate series or movie, but it does give fans something they haven’t had in a while: a downloadable Stargate sandbox. The mod reshapes Stardock’s strategy game into a Stargate setup built around empire-building, research trees, fleet combat, and wars that stretch across star systems. It pulls from Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis, and parts of Stargate Universe. Based on the project’s ModDB and GitHub pages, the featured or planned factions include the Tau’ri, Goa’uld, Asgard Replicators, Ori, Asurans, Wraith, and Travellers. Even the Goa’uld Ha’tak model uses the Stargate Universe season 1 design.

Part of the reason Stargate Invasion is getting noticed is simple: there’s still no official live-action follow-up. Reports say Amazon MGM canceled Martin Gero’s Stargate revival in June 2026 before filming started, even after the project had reportedly spent about two years in development, got the green light in November 2025, assembled a full writers’ room, and had already entered UK pre-production. Executives reportedly had doubts about how big the audience would be, while insiders blamed turnover and shifting priorities. Amazon, for its part, has said it’s still looking into a reboot with a different team.

If you’re still chasing new Stargate more than 30 years after the 1994 film Stargate, and after 2018’s Stargate Origins, this is probably worth downloading.

You can grab an older ModDB build centered on the Tau’ri, Asurans, and Goa’uld, and find extra project files plus installation help on GitHub.
