At the price of a partially constrained view, ships of the heavy fighter class will feature sturdy cockpit interiors equipped with large displays, making pilots feel always comfy and not lose control even when taking a few frontal hits… Concept art detailing of the Interceptor cockpit. With its focus on forward-oriented combat at high speed, cockpit interiors of the medium fighter class resemble the layout with centralized instruments in military jet fighters of the 21st century. Let’s have a look: Early concept art of light fighter cockpit interiors focusing on maximal FOV and minimal obstruction by display panels. However, we know from the predecessor, there is also an avid group of space pilots who put game immersion above everything else so we’re spending quite some effort on designing detailed cockpits with fully functional instruments for each player ship subclass. This is a reason why playing in 3rd person view is advantageous. Okay, now that we’ve got that news off our mental stack, let’s finally talk about some new awesome stuff in EVERSPACE 2.įast-paced combat in open space as well as inside of interior locations will remain the main pillar of the EVERSPACE franchise, so location awareness in 3D space as well as strafing quickly in any direction is key to survival. This extra time also means we’ll have more content for you to enjoy in the closed Alpha, Beta, and Early Access builds. Thankfully, we’re in a financially comfortable position, so the project itself is not at risk, and we are developing the gam internally as planned. We will reach out to backers with creative rewards towards the end of this year.Įven if this is just a strategic decision to mitigate commercial risks when major market conditions change, we are fully aware that some of you won’t be too happy about this, but we hope for your understanding. Consequently, we’re also pushing the closed Alpha back to the end of May and the closed Beta to August. Obviously, there is quite an overlap between those audiences and ours, so we have decided it wouldn’t be wise to directly compete against two sci-fi shooter RPG juggernauts, leaving not much room for any other sci-fi shooter coming out at the same time.Ĭonsidering all those new challenges, we had to make a tough decision about postponing the EVERSPACE 2 launch on Steam Early Access, now aiming for early December this year.

In short: We have to deal with a lot of uncertainties regarding business development, external game production as well as marketing and PR.Īnother issue is that some AAA blockbuster titles will hit our initial Steam Early Access release date: The hotly-anticipated open-world sci-fi shooter RPG Cyberpunk 2077 was recently pushed back to September, plus the brand new sci-fi looter shooter RPG Outriders from Square Enix has just been announced to release the same month, too. Right now, we are prepared for everything and are hoping for the best. We are now setting up conference calls or meetings at upcoming events. Unsurprisingly, all our GDC meetings with major platform holders and potential console co-publishing partners have been canceled, too. It sounds like right out of a sci-fi horror movie: An aggressive virus is spreading around the globe, causing great uncertainties, severe supply chain issues and cancellations of big international events pretty much everywhere. Before we delve into detail we have to make an important announcement, as the world keeps spinning through space with ludicrous speed while big things are happening right now that have a significant impact on the entire gaming industry.
#Everspace 2 vr update
So, we decided to push back the production update by one week, and are thus back here for you today with even more awesome stuff. Lots of avid space pilots stopping by our booth to try out the prototype and have a chat with our awesome community team.Ĭonsequently, Erik would have been too busy to stream and explain the latest changes and additions last Friday.
They met with fans, content creators and media representatives from the US east coast. New Timeline, Cockpits, State Of VR, Assault Fighter Redesign & Ultimate AbilitiesĪs many of you know already, Erik (aka Giraffasaur), our Community Ambassador, was at PAX East together with James (aka Matsumuri) and Roy (aka 31Fox) to showcase the EVERSPACE 2 Prototype on the show floor.
