Fantastic addition.
A very fine addition to the X4 universe. Love the Boron ships and NPCs.

Be on 5.10 Hotfix 3b for a While Instead
There is another review claiming that the bugs are not fixed as soon as possible. Is it? The changelog on GOG Database shows patches on 2023-04-14 and 2023-04-26, more will come to this 2023-04-11 DLC. Having said that, it is not ready, sadly, please stay on 5.10 5.10 Hotfix 3b, folks, and I know, I like Boron too but this is not playable. Maybe would be fixed after a few months or maybe after 3 years, I have no idea really. Egosoft is well-known for being like this to anyone who follows it for long, not like "X2" or "X3" were not full of bugs. So I removed 1 star for a rushed release, this should've been tested better, 1 star for some unfree DRM elements present in the game that must be not here at all, and 1 star for not providing the offline installers for the old stable version, that means 2 out of 5.

Buggy and not ready, avoid
I made the error and trusted Egosoft, purchased it on the first day. Won't make this error again... TL/DR: Do NOT BUY this mess, wait at least 2 or 3 months!! The DLC is not bad, but was pushed out at least one month too early! It has massive bugs and problems, which in part go back to the new game version 6.0, which is necessary for the DLC. Both, the new game version and the DLC was pushed out midst a running Beta test, which obviously was not concluded, the game has massive bugs because they introduced a new Physics Engine (Jolt), which by no means is ready. Pathfinding bugs, ships sticking together, ships hang in docks and are unusable, things like that, plus serious bugs, missions no longer working, and a lot more. Before buying have a look at Egosoft Forums, there you will find pages full of serious bugs reported, proved and accepted. But not fixed yet. After this release, which clearly is a Beta declared as release, and the DLC (which needs 6.0) they do not try to fix problems ASAP, no, they just started an NEW Beta for something different in the game, and let everybody who was naive and trusting enough sit with this botched release. So - do NOT BUY this, wait at least 2 or 3 months, hopefully they will find the time to fix this mess. Additionally if you already have the game, by all means stay on version 5.1, which is not perfect, but stable. Also wait at least 2 or 3 months before upgrading! In itself the DLC is nice, graphically and with a nice but too short storyline. But if you want to avoid frustration, wait! Up to now Egosoft had a fairly good record in fixing bugs promptly, the 5.0 release last year had 4 Hotfixes in the first 10 days! This seems to be over, release of 6.0 is now 2 weeks past, no Hotfixes, but a new Beta test, where they test somethings else and seem to have no time to fix bugs, and for everybody who just wants to play - no fixes at all. Will remember this Egosoft :(

pretty but broken
the new ships look nice, but that's about it. the hazard area in sanctury of darkness just makes all my AI-piloted ships die. i cannot progress in the game because of this
