Egosoft celebrates the 25th Anniversary of the X series alongside Steam Space Exploration Fest with discounts until September 9th

From Press Release:

On a fateful day, test pilot Kyle Brennan made a jump from earth into the X Universe with the iconic Xperimental Shuttle. This set in motion the events in X: Beyond the Frontier, which was released in 1999, and started the X series of games.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the X series!

For two and a half decades we have explored space, immersed ourselves in lore, managed economic empires, and fought in epic battles, through several main game releases, numerous add-ons, expansions and major updates – and we are far from done!

We would like to take this opportunity to reminisce a little about the past 25 years of X games, and have prepared a video in which Bernd Lehahn, creator of the X Universe, takes a flight down memory lane. Enjoy!

Celebrate the X series during the Steam Space Exploration Fest!

From September 2nd to September 9th, 2024, Steam is celebrating our favourite genre with its “Steam Space Exploration Fest”. Whether you want to complete your collection of X games or jump into the X Universe for the first time, now is the best moment to do so!
