EVERSPACE

Quote from EVERSPACE News

We're currently busy migrating the game to Unreal Engine 4.16, adding more controls options for VR and implementing the long-awaited Hardcore Mode. While doing so we received a few alarming reports about a problem with the very last mission of the game. It must have found its way in with the last hotfix - so we decided to branch to the old code base and hotfix the hotfix.

Here's the tiny little list of changes for this patch:

• Fixed very last mission not progressing correctly
  
• Fixed Predetermination glyph incorrectly removing all jump suppressors

Attention, Pilots!

A major expansion is approaching fast (scheduled for end of October). It will feature a new player ship, the

Colonial Sentinel

, a medium fighter class ship, which will impress with some sophisticated electronic warfare capabilities and a special shield, featuring twice as much capacity as the standard model. You will also be able to use a plethora of new weapons, devices and consumables to fool, distract, and defeat enemies in new ways.

All-new factory space stations add further gameplay mechanics to the game experience, by offering special on-the-fly services, like refining and converting resources, upgrading ship capabilities or minor repair jobs. Furthermore, you will even be able to pay the Okkar Homeworld a visit. Along your journey, you will also encounter new story characters, who will offer individual questlines.

More details about the content and the pricing will follow soon.

Dear pilots on XB1,

It has been a crazy ride for the last few weeks and we are thrilled to let you know that EVERSPACE has finally arrived on the

Xbox Store

.

Mega Kudos to

@ROCKFISH_Sven

who has been working like crazy day and night and during the weekend to make it happen. Also, big thanks to our friends at ID@Xbox who helped us tremendously to get through CERT. Hands down, this team is just awesome to work with.

We will add the Windows10 version a few days later. Of course, as of now, all purchases or tokens qualify for PlayAnywhere.

We are preparing the list of Kickstarter backers who requested a token and will send those out within the next two hours.

Thanks for your patience and looking forward to see you in EVERSPACE on Xbox One,

Hi, we've just released a new update adding 4k support for Xbox One X at 30 fps and an Xbox One X performance mode running in Full HD with imrpoved graphics at 60 fps.

The update also comes with some bug fixes. See the list of changes below. Unfortunately, Unreal Engine 4.17 (which this new patch is using) broke our VR implementation, so we can't release this patch on Steam and GOG at the moment. So in order to release we need to have a running Unreal Engine 4.18 version. We started working on this a few weeks ago and are still not finished, as this version also caused a lot of problems (especially in VR) for us.

We also just started working on the Encounters expansion for Xbox One / Windows Store. This might take a few weeks as well.

New Features

• Xbox One: Added Enhanced FullHD and 4K Mode for Xbox One X
  

Tweaks

• Don't spawn old player wreck after current run was won
  
• Make sure generic repair

Encounters

is the first major expansion for EVERSPACE™, enriching the game world with new story characters and questlines, a brand-new player ship, freighter-loads of novel equipment, additional enemies, and much more.

This expansion is as of now available on Steam and GOG. We currently can't give you a release date for the Xbox and Windows Store, as we currently don't have a working Windows Store version.

A NEW RIDE

Impress your peers with the new Colonial Sentinel, a medium fighter craft, and make use of its powerful shield and advanced electronic warfare capabilities. Mileage may vary.

NEW FRIENDS?

Play five new quest lines and meet new characters, each with their own motivations and agendas. Ever met a robot bounty hunter with a French accent who would rather create than destroy? Of course not. Or an alien scientist who sends you on a hunt for space creatures? That's right. Creatures... in space.
