Elite Dangerous is a truly unique space epic. Even more than the open world of other titles, this massively multiplayer game pushes the boundaries of known space and propels you into the heart of a connected galaxy with evolving storylines and the entire Milky Way reproduced to scale.

Governments fall, battles are lost and won, and the boundaries of humanity are redrawn, all through the actions of players.
