“EVERSPACE 2 has been by far our biggest and most ambitious project here at ROCKFISH Games. It’s a real labor of love accomplished during these five years of development, including two in Early Access” said Michael Schade, CEO of ROCKFISH Games. “With the release date revealed, we finally see the light at the end of the tunnel: our exceptional community as well as new players from all over the world will have the opportunity to experience this adventure full of exciting and thrilling space combat, with beautiful locations to explore. explore, handcrafted, in space and on planets. We’ve invested a big eight-figure budget into creating the game we’ve always dreamed of making. The whole team is now hard at work finalizing and polishing all the launch content to perfection. Beyond the final chapter of the EVERSPACE 2 story, there is still so much to discover! »
As the release of EVERSPACE 2 approaches, ROCKFISH Games has moved away from Gen 8 consoles. “Our vision for EVERSPACE 2 took us beyond the limitations of previous console generations. Our team spent a lot of time trying to create a fan-friendly experience on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, but downgrading EVERSPACE 2 for those platforms doesn’t achieve the level of quality we want to deliver,” said Michael Schade. “We will keep in touch with backers who obtained console copies during our Kickstarter campaign to ensure that their interest is still present on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions of the game. We will also offer a refund in the case where they don’t have access to these consoles. »
If you don’t have it yet in your toy library, the first role-playing game, exploration and space combat Everspace Stellar Edition is available from €30.52 on Amazon.co.uk.
