Between No Man’s Sky, Star Citizen, EVE Online, Starfield, and smaller-budget efforts like FTL and the upcoming Jump Ship, there are a lot of ways to virtually explore the deepest recesses of the cosmos. The spectacular sequel to David Braben and Ian Bell’s 1984 PC classic, Elite Dangerous has presided over its particular corner of the genre galaxy since 2014. In the last decade, myriad updates, patches, and mechanical overhauls have reshaped the MMO and flight simulator, but now, inspired by feedback from players, Frontier is taking Elite Dangerous into a new era. Alongside the new Mandalay ship, the entire Powerplay system, which shapes who controls the universe and how it’s governed, is being upended and remade.
