If you thought Everspace 2 had shown you all it could, it’s time to reevaluate. Rockfish Games, the innovative minds behind this stunning space adventure, have announced a colossal expansion set to launch next year. This new addition will unveil multiple star systems, including one intriguing area fans might recall catching a fleeting glimpse of in the original game.
Having officially launched from Steam Early Access in 2023, Everspace 2 quickly rose to become one of that year’s standout games, maintaining its status as a top-tier space exploration title. Despite its huge success, Rockfish Games hasn’t paused for breath; they’re gearing up to release an expansion that’s set to take this looter-shooter and exploration experience to astronomical new heights.
The developers have released a teaser trailer, sparking excitement by hinting at some of the fresh regions Everspace 2 explorers can expect to venture into. Among these is Aethon, a location visited during the game’s concluding mission. In the initial release, players were briefly introduced to this locale, only to be promptly returned to familiar space.
Players frequently ask, “How do you get to Aethon?” on the Everspace 2 Steam and Reddit forums. Up until now, the response was a simple, “You don’t.” However, Rockfish is finally granting players the opportunity they’ve eagerly awaited.
The trailer, which you can view above, delivers a mix of drama and mystery while teasing the forthcoming expansion. Besides spotlighting Aethon, it showcases various installations, one of which seems to be encountering major issues.
This new content will be a paid DLC. Rockfish aims for a better reception than the Titans DLC, which had mixed reviews. They promise more updates soon, with a comprehensive announcement expected in the new year, revealing details about this exciting expansion. The trailer indicates a 2025 release, and we hope to receive a more precise timeframe from Rockfish soon.
