Professional Ship Simulator Features - Tutorials, Fleet and Simulation Systems

Professional Ship Simulator is a single-player Early Access simulation published by Aerosoft, listed for Windows with nine languages and 77 achievements. This page collects the store metadata that does not fit the other sections: systems, assets, tags and what the listing leaves out.

Who makes it and how it is sold

The developer line names SWE Systems and the publisher is Aerosoft. The base game ships alone, with no DLC app attached and no demo listed, and the store page links the developer site at nauticxp.com as the official destination behind it.

The absence of a demo matters for a simulation at this price, because there is no free way to test whether the ship handling suits a given machine before buying.

The systems behind the feature list

The store text is a long list of modelled behaviour, and it is the most concrete thing on the page. It also names the onboarding: guided tutorials, or structured missions for players who prefer to learn by contract. Hydrodynamics cover propeller torque, bank effect, wind and current drift, anchor behaviour and line tension. Damage covers hull and flooding. Ship handling covers mooring and towing, with wing control stations on larger vessels.

Onboard, the listing names power generation and transmission, radar with AIS and CPA, sonar and radio communication. Environment covers a day and night cycle, storm fronts, fog, rain, snow and rough seas, plus optional real-time weather data.

Fleet, maps and assets

Nine ship types are named, from a tugboat and fishing trawler to a bulk carrier, LNG tanker and cruise ship. Two maps carry measurements, the Island of Rugen at 60km by 120km and the Strait of Dover at 140km by 140km, with over 40 harbours and a tile-based, moddable map system.

Fifteen screenshots and three trailers form the store gallery, and the trailers are all named around the Early Access release. Nine languages are supported, with English the only one flagged for full audio.

Tags, ratings and support channels

• Feature tags: single-player, Steam Achievements, Steam Cloud and Family Sharing.
• Steam content descriptors: none.
• Support channels named on the listing: a Discord invite and support@nauticxp.com.
• Controller support: not tagged on the listing.

The tag list is short by design: this is a single-player simulator with no co-op or multiplayer layer.

What is not published

• No console or macOS version is listed or announced.
• No roadmap, update cadence or DLC is published.
• No playtime estimate, mission list or credit values appear on the listing.
• No mod format or tooling is described beyond the tile-based map note.

Where official data runs out, this page stops rather than extrapolating from the genre.
