'EverSpace 2' Titans DLC Adds New Story And Gameplay In September - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Aug. 21, 2024 @ 12:00 a.m. PDT

In contrast to the roguelike concept of its predecessor, EverSpace 2 is an open-world space shooter with classic RPG elements and persistent player progression, as well as a much larger number of player ships and significantly enhanced storytelling.

Set in a persistent open world, it is driven by a captivating sci-fi story that picks up shortly after the events of its predecessor, but instead of the previous roguelike game mechanics, the focus in EverSpace 2 will be on open world gameplay combined with classic RPG elements and extended storytelling. 

Thanks to the expanded perks and a brand new class-based player ship system with dozens of models, players can also fully customize their spaceship to their individual playing style with weapons, plating, and equipment, similar to classic RPG character development. Despite all the innovations, EverSpace 2 remains true to its space shooter core and presents fast-paced space action in the well-known EverSpace style.

The story of EverSpace 2 continues from its predecessor, as you continue the story of Adam Roslin, one of the surviving cloned military space pilot. The player is faced with the remnants of his past: the cloning program has been canceled, the colonial authorities have placed a bounty on him,

Players will experience Adam’s journey as he learns what it means to transition from a clone with unlimited lives, yet persistent memories, so now that dying means the ultimate death the search for the meaning of life suddenly takes on a whole new importance. Adam’s journey will be shaped through meaningful relationships with interesting companions as he discovers that life is only worth-living if there is also something worth dying for. Fate, however, has big plans and soon the player discovers what it means to evolve from a former military clone to a truly real person.

EverSpace 2 not only creates a powerful gaming experience, but also one that is visually impressive in the beautiful infinity of space where breathtaking cinematic scenery invites - encourages - exploration.


EverSpace 2: Titans is coming to pilots on all platforms starting September 16, 2024.

Bigger is BETTER. That’s why we’ve chosen to bring two massive much-anticipated encounters to EVERSPACE 2—the Dreadnought and Leviathan. Originally teased as potential content when we first revealed EverSpace 2, these are two encounters that our design team have been excited to put in players’ hands.

Dreadnought and Leviathan have their own associated questline that triggers midway through the story of EverSpace 2. This expansion introduces new enemies, gear, craftables, and resources, as well as new faces to meet and adventure with. These stories are approximately three to four hours long and offer new challenges as you clash against these titans. After completing the story, you’ll be able to rediscover these challenges while exploring certain star systems.

In Dreadnought, Outlaws have hijacked the Minokawa, a last-of-its-kind battleship from the Colonial war that enroute to be decommissioned. Possession of this space station-killer class ship will throw the balance of power in Cluster 34 to whoever is able to restore it. Adam is contracted to join a group of freelancers hired to track and defeat this titanic threat, but be prepared to engage in the biggest battle in the EVERSPACE series so far!

The new Leviathan quest line brings an entirely new experience to EverSpace 2. Sightings of the legendary Leviathan have spread amongst the fortune seekers of Cluster 34 including your least favorite cultists, the Redeemers. Venture deep into the Khaït Nebula to discover the truth of these massive, presumed-to-be-extinct creatures! Not all that is swallowed is lost—treasures are said to lay deep inside the bowels of this beast and that’s exactly where you’re going to end up. Travel inside to discover valuable new resources can be found inside the guts of these massive creatures. No two ventures inside will be the same as the many stomachs and organs of these beasts rearrange themselves.

EverSpace 2: Titans Includes:

  • Adventure through two new storylines containing the largest encounters found so far in the series
  • Engage in battle against a massive Outlaw Dreadnought starship alongside NPC wingmen
  • Venture inside procedurally generated living Leviathans to reclaim lost technology and discover unique items
  • Clash against new enemies and hostile space creatures
  • Collect new gear (item sets, legendaries, catalysts, consumables)
  • Discover new resources and crafting blueprints

EverSpace 2: Titans is our first story and gameplay DLC, but there’s more to come.

EverSpace 2 is available for PC (Steam/GOG), PS5 and Xbox Series X|S for $49.99 USD / £44.99 / €49.99 / ¥6930.
