EVERSPACE 2 puts you in the pilot seat in this fast-paced single-player space shooter, where vicious encounters and brutal challenges stand between you and that next epic loot drop. Explore the war-torn star systems of the Demilitarized Zone of Cluster 34—each massive handcrafted area is packed with secrets, puzzles, and perils to encounter.
Experience a thrilling sci-fi story following Adam, a clone pilot seeking his place in the universe. The events of his past tangle with clashing factions as the DMZ approaches a boiling point. Escape colonial capture, navigate the intrigues of local warlords, evade energy-maddened cultists, and fend off war-hungry aliens.
Adam will need more than wits, luck, and skill to survive—gather a team of experts to achieve his payday and finally achieve his dream of escaping the DMZ. Meet old friends and new allies, each with their own stories to tell. They will join you during missions, provide upgradable perks, unlock new abilities, and aid your path forward.
— EMBARK ON AN EXCITING JOURNEY —
Discover alien species, unveil mysteries, find hidden treasures, and defend your cargo against outlaw gangs in an exciting 30-hour campaign. Completionists can dive deep into the EVERSPACE universe and spend more than 90 hours to complete every side mission, finish every challenge, and discover every hidden secret.
— LET THE LASERS DO THE TALKING —
Annihilate your foes the EVERSPACE way. Dodge, dash, roll, and boost guns blazing into frantic dogfights, leaving a trail of space scrap behind. Use a wide range of weaponry and abilities to defeat drones, fighters, heavy bombers, and powerful gunships. But don’t get cocky! Massive capital vessels and ancient guardians will push the skills of even the most experienced pilots. Use your environment to your advantage, and gain the upper hand against greater numbers.
— EXPLORE THE GALAXY —
Enter the EVERSPACE universe and explore it at your leisure. The DMZ and surrounding areas of Cluster 34 are brimming with main and side missions, activities, events, and secrets to be uncovered. Fire up your hyperdrive to discover more than 100 unique, handcrafted locations spread across seven distinct star systems and shape your legacy among the stars.
— HAVE IT YOUR WAY —
Expand your private ship collection from a virtually endless supply of fighters composed of unique classes to optimize your build to perfection. For a price, traders throughout the cluster will help you acquire improved models or send your current ship off for storage as you try a new ship type. Cleverly combine modules, weapons, devices, and perks to fit your individual playstyle and the current mission.
— SEEK OUT SECRETS —
Clever pilots are successful pilots. Loot outlaw caches, salvageable wrecks, and ancient hidden treasures scattered throughout every explorable area of the DMZ. Search structures, solve puzzles, blow up asteroids, and restore ruins to hunt down every one of these treasures.
— EPIC LOOT AWAITS —
Hunt for improved gear to expand your arsenal of powerful equipment combinations. Look for loot that fits your playstyle, but be willing to leave your comfort zone and try something new. Be ready to find and exploit synergistic effects between equipment, perks, devices, and ships to fully maximize their potential.
— LET THE HUNT BEGIN —
Completing EVERSPACE 2’s extensive campaign is not the end! Engage in high-octane endgame High-Risk Areas and Ancient Rifts that allow you to push your build and luck to the limit against progressively harder enemies. Succeed in a run to acquire legendary gear that holds immense power and extraordinary abilities.
I was really hyped when I heard a new Everspace is about to be released.
I really loved the Rogue-Lite action - no game is the same.
This avoided boring storylines and restricted movement altogether.
I would have fun, re-playing and beat the game with harder difficult / less strong weapons.
But this now have changed - in Story mode, I can die anytime. My lack of skill is not punished, as I spawn right again. The run hasn't ended. There is no punishment for it.
On top of that, you know have a really annoying loot/craft system, which takes too much time away from the action.
All in all, I can say that I'm disappointed in yet another open-world game that didn't made it.
Before I liked the game, but now, I would not play it again.
Everspace 1 was great - would been happy if they kept their mindset.
But it seemed, they picked what was more popular and less punishing to the bigger playerbase.
Completely fails at storytelling, tries to replace it with grind and RPG nonsense (there are numbers over numbers over numbers on every! single! thing! and they all need upgrading - it's mind-numbing). Even worse than Ubisoft. Do yourself a favour and get the original Everspace game instead. That is tight and focused and fun - this is not.
I have to admit that I'm enjoying the game, my only complain here is that there's an issue with the 100% usage of my GTX 1070 Ti when I play in High or Epic, games like Star Citizen or Cyberpunk 2077 runs perfectly without the 100% usage, I'm aware that this is an early access and issues are part of it, hope to see that usage issues fixed soon.
Unfortunately, unlike their first game which was apolitical, this game gets woke. They introduce the first female character by having the male characters become incompetent and get dominated. The first time I mentioned this the thread was closed within minutes. After speaking out about the censorship on platforms the devs don't control their community manager was finally willing to talk, and I thought we had sorted things out. Before that happened though, they had tried to group multiple closed threads into one to make it appear as though there was an actual conversation and frequently lied through their teeth about the situation, kept trying to order me about, made various threats. I even got an email from twitter about the german government being reported about me but that's supposedly standard procedure on twitter when someone in germany tries to get you banned.
Later on one of their moderators stalked me on other platforms, I got in touch with the community manager again and was told the moderator hadn't forgiven me for speaking out about the devs censoring criticism. The community manager also tried to give me a guilt trip over it. Apparently blowing the whistle is a heinous crime they never let go and I'm their boogey man to this day. I had thought, however, the original understanding that they wouldn't engage in censorship again still stood, but after having another thread deleted, welp, I'm done. I never should have backed these devs, they're great at making games but failures at human decency.
To give a little perspective, a thread I made where the opening post talks about naming a ship 'The 1989 Tiananmen Square Massacre' was of course ignored. Other threads demanding things like making the protagonist female were ignored. Their problem isn't politics, it's opinions the devs dislike and the agenda is obvious.
