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 like this game a lot, but I am going to be honest in my review.
It occasionally feels like Diablo or Skyrim in space (which is not bad), but there are minor pestering points here and there. It feels light-hearted and easygoing overall. Plot is diverse enough and uncontrived.
What I liked:
- gameplay is solid and captivating
- fights are well-balanced on normal
- GEAR AND LOOT galore
- voice acting is amazing and so are the characters (especially HIVE)
- gorgeous graphics
- great variety of ships (and they change the way you fight)
What I liked less:
- music gets annoying quickly
- space economy is very simplistic (Space Rangers 2: A War Apart is much better) so it gets boring
- puzzles quality also vary: from well-executed pieces to downright annoying
A great game with entertaining space combat, ship customisation and a nice story.
But oh boy are there a lot of puzzles. Fun at first. But sooooo many.
There's also a special challenge mode post-game if you're into that.
Everspace 2 is highly polished and quite possibly the best game of its genre to date.
There are some light RPG elements in choosing a ship type and customising its loadout.
The campaign is pretty meaty and there are a sidequests and other activities to keep you busy. After completing the story, there are challenges available which really test your skills and loadout.
There's no AAA slop to be found here at all - its all preem stuff.
Space faring and combat is generally enjoyable in this game but the mission designs are just incredibly badly made.
The balancing is very often off and the mission indicators and descriptions are outright confusing. I get the idea that the game tries to not spell the quest objectives outright, but the quest descriptions are too abstract to know what you are looking for at least and often the actual missions indicator give bad information instead of helping. The amount of wondering around until the time you stumble upon the objective feels like 1/2 of the play time in main missions that do not involved killing.
The worse example of this was a missions that you need to escape from an underground settlement. The are 3 possible tunnels that you need to check and navigate. When you check the tunnel most end up in a dead end. The problem is that they are confusing to navigate, missions indicators do not update to indicated that you already need in a tunnel and even worse enemies re-spawn almost immediately, removing the last thing that you could have used to know which places you have already checked.
It becomes tedious and grading. It is a shame this game could have been really good with simple simple common sense in mission design.
Good graphics, lots of ships, great controls, combat is highly customizable, exploration is fun.
The most fun I've had with a flight stick since Freespace 2.
