Everspace 2 не будет эксклюзивом EGS

Студия собирает $500 тысяч на разработку сиквела.

Dear Veteran Pilots, Over half a year since our last update about the original(!) EVERSPACE here on Kickstarter has passed, so we would like to bring everybody up to speed who is not yet following us on Twitter, Facebook or our Rockfish Games Discord (now would be a good time to do so). EVERSPACE 2 Kickstarter Your feedback during the original campaign made EVERSPACE the success it was, and we couldn’t be more grateful for your ongoing support. We also heard you loud and clear what you guys wanted most from us for our next space game. So, this is probably the most exciting news for all of you: The EVERSPACE 2 Kickstarter campaign has just launched to create a fully-fledged open-world space shooter RPG for PC and console together with you guys, our most die-hard fans. We are already off to a good start with 27% funding, and we would be more than happy to have all of you on board once again. For those who cannot wait to see more about EVERSPACE 2, we got good news, too: Our wonderful community ambassador, Erik Schrader, will stream the latest version of the game on the Rockfish Games channel on Twitch every Wednesday and Friday from 8 pm to 10 pm CEST / 2 pm to 4 pm EDT. Also, in case you missed it, Cohh Carnage did an awesome stream of the EVERSPACE 2 demo, just yesterday. https://youtu.be/iiDckahWgH4 Patches Galore Even though the development of the original EVERSPACE ended a while ago, we have still been active squashing a few more minor bugs on all platforms and improving the overall performance on Switch as well as adding Korean, simplified and traditional Chinese language support. Xbox Game Pass We also worked with our friends at Microsoft on bringing the original EVERSPACE to even more space game enthusiasts on Xbox One and the Windows Store, and we are excited that our studio debut title has recently been added to Xbox Game Pass along with other great indie games like Astroneer, Bridge Constructor Portal, Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun and Thimbleweed Park. NO EGS EXCLUSIVE Finally, we have noticed that since our last Kickstarter, things have changed quite a bit. Due to broken promises from indie devs all the way to AAA publishers, it is probably no exaggeration to say that trust in developers is at an all-time low, especially in regards to Epic Games Store exclusives of titles that were originally (co)funded on Kickstarter. Ironically, one of the main reasons why we are doing another Kickstarter is to double-down on our promise that EVERSPACE 2 will launch on Steam first, no matter what. Just in case there are still any doubts, you might want to read an official interview on Gamesindustry.biz why Steam is and will be our most important digital games storefront. With this hopefully being out of the way, please head over to our new campaign and help us once again to make an even bigger and better space shooter and tell your friends all about it. We couldn’t be more excited about EVERSPACE 2 going open-world – let’s do this together! See you in EVERSPACE 2 on Steam! Michael and your dedicated ROCKFISH Games Team
