Satisfactory is a first-person open world factory building game developed and published by Coffee Stain Studios.

The game was released to early access on March 19, 2019 on Epic Games Store and has reached over 500,000 copies sold by June 7, 2019.[1] Following its third major update, the game became available on Steam on June 8, 2020, allowing cross-play with Epic Games Store.[2] Coffee Stain Studios described the releases on both platforms as an "incredible success", as they announced that by July 3, the number of sales on Steam has exceeded 360,000 and the total number across both stores has reached 1.3 million.[Note 1][3]

As of May 15, 2020, official mod support is planned but not implemented.[4] Community-created FICSIT Augmentation Database serves as an unofficial mods repository containing more than 200 modifications.
