He eagerly awaits the reception from fans, considering the extraordinary effort put into the expansion.
In addition to showcasing their latest game offering, Schade highlighted the strength of the German video game industry, which benefits from substantial government grants. These grants aim to level the playing field with other countries that have enjoyed tax break programs for decades. Such financial support is crucial as it fuels job creation and the development of innovative projects, ensuring that small to mid-sized studios in Germany remain independent and continue to thrive even amid challenges in securing industry funding.
“Wrath of the Ancients” expands upon the EVERSPACE 2 storyline, introducing new star systems and enriching existing areas with additional side quests. Players will embark on an adventure set after the main events of EVERSPACE 2, piloting a newly introduced ship to face alien adversaries and unravel ancient mysteries.

Gamers will travel to the Okkar Homeworlds in a race against time to uncover the origins of these threats before a full-scale war erupts.
The expansion features the opening of warp gates to four completely new star systems, including the Okkar homeworlds and Aethon, revealing yet more secrets within Cluster 34. These new realms are teeming with adversaries, weapons, and equipment waiting to be discovered.
EVERSPACE 2, compatible with Windows PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PS5, continues to captivate players with its dynamic gameplay and expansive universe. The “Wrath of the Ancients” expansion is sure to elevate the gaming experience to unprecedented levels.
