“In developing the campaign, it was particularly important for us to not only pick up the story from the acclaimed first part of the series, but also that our characters gain more emotional depth and multi-faceted motivation. 13 fans have already fulfilled their dream of becoming a spaceship designer, which leaves seven rewards available as the campaign is halfway over.

Naming and designing one of these ships is another Kickstarter reward. Well over 100 different player ships will be available in the final game. The medium fighter class will be supplemented with a light and a heavy class, which will differ considerably in their abilities. Featuring primary, secondary and tertiary colours as well as the vessels’ insignia, various ship hulls, wings, engines and extentitions can be unlocked and interchanged in a multitude of combinations. In addition to an open game world, space game enthusiasts can look forward to a larger selection of spaceships with extensive possibilities for individualization. ROCKFISH Games is also adhering to wishes from the community with a multitude of new player ships. Some of them even so gigantic that they could devour entire spaceships whole. Fiction will also play an important role in the EVERSPACE™ 2 space opera: all kinds of fantastic creatures will cross the player's paths. Assisting in the design of one of these outlaw clans, including a portrait of the boss, is one of the top Kickstarter rewards with only two left. Outlaws will organize themselves into individual clans, which will differ from each other both visually and in their technological development. The entire game world of EVERSPACE™ 2 will also be more lively and differentiated. The creative team took inspiration from sci-fi film classics like Blade Runner, The Sixth Day and video games like Detroit: Become Human, which all deal with the subject of what it means to be human.

The circumstances, however, are completely new: the hero's motivation is not just to save the entire galaxy, but to search for the purpose of life and his own place in society. The hero's journey will continue as a clone pilot from the previous game, and fans can also look forward to meeting a few familiar faces. In addition to significantly improved graphics, a much larger game world and persistent player progression, the Hamburg-based studio continues to have an open ear for community suggestions by placing a high emphasis on extended storytelling and a vast selection of player ships as indicated by the recent announcements on the background story and modular design of player ships in EVERSPACE™ 2.īuilding off the change from the predecessor’s roguelike game mechanics to open-world gameplay with classic RPG elements, the story of the campaign with around 20 hours of playing time is also moving into focus. Hamburg, Germany – Octo– After three weeks, the Kickstarter campaign for EVERSPACE™ 2, the new open-world space shooter from independent developer ROCKFISH Games, reached more than 60% of its EUR 450,000 (~USD 500,000) funding goal.
