It's time to disembark, Commander.

We are delighted to share with you a glimpse of the Next Era - Elite Dangerous: Odyssey.



Explore distant worlds on foot, expand the frontier of known space and leave your mark on the galaxy as you become the first person in history to explore lands untouched since time began.

So you've disembarked, you're standing for the first time on an unexplored planet. What can you do next? Here's an overview of what you can look forward to in Elite Dangerous: Odyssey.


One Giant Leap

See the galaxy like never before. Touch down on breathtaking planets powered by stunning new tech, soak in suns rising over unforgettable vistas, discover outposts and settlements, and explore with unrestricted freedom.


Forge Your Own Path

Take on a wide variety of contracts and play your way, from diplomacy and commerce to lethal stealth and all-out combat. Diverse settings, objectives, and NPCs offer endless mission variety and a near infinite amount of content to enjoy.


Assemble Your Crew

Social hubs spread throughout the galaxy give Commanders the ideal place to plan their next move. Form alliances, procure services, and even find expert support in highly coveted Engineers. These public outposts also help you acquire and upgrade weapons and gear to perfect your playing style.


The Sphere of Combat

Experience intense first-person combat, kit out your character with an array of weapons and gear, and coordinate with teammates to master a multi-layered, deep, tactical environment where Commanders, SRVs and Starships converge.

From now until launch, we'll be sharing more information, developer diaries and trailers as we get ready to embark on this exciting new adventure!

Hooray!

Thanks frontier!
 
If it's just about combat and FPS, then I'm not interested. I hope there's some other game play, puzzles, missions to hack or steal something, find a lost person, etc, and not just "go there and shoot something." Too many games do that already. Combat is important to have there, but I sure hope it's not all.
 
Looks great guys! It will be neat to explore the settlements and meet NPCs person to person and such. Even better, other players! Will there also be ship interiors? Large cities?
I would love some more player to player features, maybe a player driven market in open, module crafting or player driven engineering, ship interior cosmetics, player apartments, there's a lot of opportunities here!

Elite: No Man Sky
 
Hmm. Yea. Just as everybody already suspected since a long time: we get a shooter attached to the game. The question is: will it actually be so much better than the plethora of shooters already on the marked or coming out in the next time?

If yes: interesting. How is that possible, considering that other game developers have years of experience and focus all their effort on creating the best shooter possible. (Might explain the status of carriers though: the actual effort went elsewhere. )

If no: why bother? Wouldn't it have been more interesting to have more things to find, than to have a shooter attached? We still can't land on anything with an atmosphere, let alone with a biosphere or being able to have a submersible spacecraft (say Hello to the Moray Starboat) and explore water worlds.

Edit: But kudos for the name chosen. I mean, "Odyssey", it really matches. It's the story of a voyage, cursed by the gods, getting lost in a storm, people dying on the way, etc. And while the most often told ending is a massacre with Odysseus coming out as the winner, there are also tragic versions around. It's daring and surprisingly honest to use this name for an expansion.

Please have 3rd person PvE co-op content and not just random sight seeing exploration and mining / scanning.

Hoping for a lot more planetary bases to do some stuff with. Not looking for an PvP however I think that needs to be part of this content for pro PvP interests.
