Paris, France – October 6, 2016 – Award-winning developer Amplitude Studios announced today that Endless Space 2 is available now on Steam, for $37.49, a 25% discount off the $49.99 retail price for the Digital Deluxe Edition, and $29.99, a 25% discount off the $39.99 retail price for the Standard Edition. Set in the same universe as critically-acclaimed Endless Space and Endless Legend, Endless Space 2 is a turn-based, 4X space-strategy game that expands the Endless universe even further.
In addition to the Standard Edition, Endless Space 2 is available in a Digital Deluxe Edition (only available during Early Access), which contains the digital Soundtrack from FlybyNo and cosmetic in-game bonuses inspired by the Pathfinders of the Academy.
“Endless Space 2 has been such a fun development process, building upon Endless Space and Endless Legend, and creating the game brick by brick,” said Romain de Waubert de Genlis, Creative Director at Amplitude Studios. “Our games are deep, and we need lots of different people collaborating and contributing their thoughts and suggestions during Early Access, to help us formulate the perfect game.”
The Early Access version of Endless Space 2 features four of the eight factions planned for the full release of the game. Discover each faction’s story, from the AI gone berserk to the origins of the lethal Endless creation called the Cravers. Feel like an emperor and see your population react to all your decisions, as they will be the source but also the key to all your conflicts. Explore the Endless universe, discover its secrets, its new life forms and find your own path to galactic dominion.
