Avantris Entertainment, the publishing arm of Legends of Avantris and the makers of The Crooked Moon, has announced a new space opera-themed D&D project that will launch on Kickstarter later this year. Neon Odyssey is described as a "a neon-soaked science fantasy space opera trilogy for D&D 5E," drawing inspiration from sources like Star Wars and Cowboy Bebop. The Neon Odyssey project includes three books, an Outrunner's Handbook containing player rules and character-building guides, a Cosmic Codex detailing the Stardust Rhapsody campaign setting, and the Overdrive Expansion that contains optional rules for professions, racing and more. All the "classic" D&D character classes are reimagined in the books under new names and containing mechanical upgrades, with 40 subclasses, 30 species, and 300+ alien monsters and enemy vehicles to battle against.

The Kickstarter for Neon Odyssey will launch in May, with Avantris running weekly Neon Odyssey-focused content on their channels from March to June. Avantris's last Kickstarter to fund the Crooked Moon, raised over $4M in 2023.

Honestly, I think the Daggerheart engine is a much better fit for Sci-Fantasy than 5e. I ran a baller one shot with that theme, but the conversion was too much work for the table so I’m keeping my eyes on a few KS projects meant to turn DH into a full on Sci-Fanatsy game. Space fantasy I think benefits from a more cinematic approach.

I've had a chance to check out the play test material. The only class you get to preview fully is the Tracer which is based on the Ranger. Looking at information on pregen character sheets, it looks like;
Idol= bard
Machinist= artificer
Scoundrel= rogue
Enforcer= paladin
