Everspace is one of the interesting single-player 3D space shooters that grants players the option to upgrade their ship’s capability combined with roguelike elements and non-linear storytelling. The first Everspace game was released in 2017 for Playstation 4, PC, Xbox, Linux, macOS, and Nintendo Switch, and was praised for its gameplay, space combat, and story. After a long time, just when fans were about to give up, a sequel of the game was announced and fans got hyped with the news of Everspace 2’s arrival once more, but where does that leave for Everspace 3? Read on more to find out about the series and the possibility of a third game.
About the game
Despite its simplistic system, the game managed to win the hearts of many fans and was regarded as an enjoyable experience by many critics. Players have to venture through a number of sectors, with each sector becoming tougher as players progress through. As Everspace shares roguelike elements, you are expected to die many times, and with each death, you can use your money to invest in your ship and character for the next run. To survive tougher fights, the game expects players to collect resources, craft items, and upgrade the arsenal of ships as well as upgrade its defense such as maneuverability and shielding.
In the game, you can find many new weapons and add-ons that you can carry to your current run.
The sequel of Everspace
As the first game managed to sell well and received positive among fans and critics, Rockfish games announced that they’re working on a sequel that’ll feature interesting gameplay mechanics and improve roguelike elements. The second game was supposed to be released as early access but got its release date pushed back as the popular RPG game Cyberpunk 2077 was released in December 2020.
We can say for sure that Everspace 2 will add new features to the game and increase its replayability value, just like the first game and we’re all for it. Everspace 2 is set to be released in 2023, so it will be a long wait until we get to play the game.
Everspace 3 release date prediction
If we analyze the timeframe of the release date between the two games, which is six years, we can speculate that Everspace 3 will launch in 2029 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, so it will be almost a decade before we’ll get to see the third game, and if things go smooth, we might get to see it earlier. However, these are all speculation and not confirmed updates. Only time will tell when Everspace 3 is going to be released.
