Ready for take-off?


This announcement has been a long time coming: Endless Space 2 is releasing on May 19th, 2017! Yes, it's a Friday, so that means your week-end plans might need to be altered somewhat.


As was announced shortly before Early Access, our final release price will be of $39,99 / £34,99 / €39,99 for the Standard Edition, and a Digital Deluxe Edition available for $49,99 / £44,99 / €49,99, which includes the Digital Soundtrack, the Pathfinder Academy heroes and Hero ship skins.


Remember that you have until release to benefit from a 25% discount on both editions, along with Founder bonuses for the Digital Deluxe. Those bonuses are the Cravers Prime fleet skin, a special forum award, G2G points, forum avatars and a unique forum title! 



Shiny New Upgrade 

"But what if we picked up the Standard Edition and we want to upgrade to the Digital Deluxe Edition now?" you cry out (or maybe you don't, but I'd like to imagine you're very excited about the prospect). Well, fret no more, for we are introducing a Standard to Digital Deluxe Upgrade for $10,99 / £10,99 / €10,99! Coming later tonight.



Retail Box For Collectors of Shiny Things

"What if I would really like to pick up a physical copy for my friend/sister/cool grandma, who likes to display beautiful objects in their gaming shrine?" you add, quite specifically. Again, we've got you covered with the introduction of a retail box, coming to stores near you! 




Isn't it beautiful? Think how cool it will look on your shelves! Comes with a double-sided poster of the Academy in A3 format and a print version of the Last Flight of the Gray Owl, recounting the dramatic events that led to the crash of the Gray Owl on Auriga. Where did we see the Gray Owl again? Oh, that's right, not that long ago


Coming May 19th, so mark the date!



That's it for the announcements! Be still, my heart...

I don't think this will be possible, sadly. As far as i know they don't have, for example, their own Ships. I am with you though and hope that someday we get either a great creation kit so we can model the ES1 races and ships as a mod into ES2 or if their design team has some free time, works on them and releases them as DLC or whatever. Amoeba and Harmony ships would look sooo great in ES2.

Check out my ES2 Custom Faction Idea if you want to help the devs realize this is a needed feature.

To be honest: this seems to close to me. As I see this game with lots of potential and actually not needing more features (except for the new faction), IMO you should center on rebalancing, tweaking and de-bugging the whole thing and make another minor update before release to test this.

Lots of complaints of the same around the forums, and the most sad think is that IMO the game concept is very interesting and gives new ideas to 4X genre, but is someway failing to implement them due to balance issues (see influence) and problems like the never-ending-turn bug.


Have high hope on you Amp, please consider this petition, as more people in community is asking the same.

Hi, it's amazing news. I'm really excited, I will end pass my maturity exams 18 May  . But i have a question, if I bought Standard Edition few month ago and today I upgrade to Delux Edition will I get Cravers Prime skin Fleet ?

Graetings from Poland, I'm really proud that you creat this great game.

I was too hasty to try and find out if the game would run on my laptop and before I knew it I was 4 hours into the game.

Now this way I can finally make sure I get the goodies.

"Wait is it just me or isn't it there yet?"

Looking for "Shiny new Upgrade" option as well. Still no signs of it yet, though. :c

So I'm posting on this when it's two days old, and Frogsquadron said that they would make the upgrade from standard to deluxe that same night, but where is it? :3 I want it super bad and I don't want to forget.

I can't wait to see The Unfallen in the game! I'm super exited how they look, sound and feel to play.

Neat, can't wait!


But will there be an option to upgrade to the Digital Deluxe Edition on Steam before release?

I can't help but feel that it would be nice to be able to just buy a box without a code... I like physical goodies for games I enjoy, but I don't like duplicate copies or reselling my keys. And that's a shame...

If you have the Digital Deluxe edition you can't add to it. The physical box can be enhanced by adding the upgrade to Deluxe Ed, but it only works that way (for obvious reasons).

Sooo, we have an official confirmation that the Grey Owl is the ship from the New Beginning trailer. And this Academy poster looks beautiful... and mysterious...
