Elite: Dangerous is bringing its unique brand of space exploration and conquest to PS4 on June 27. Have you ever wanted to explore the far reaches of space and claim that harsh darkness as your own? Do you want to start your own trading empire, shipping precious goods from one start system to the next for a profit? Do you want to become the ultimate space pirate and take advantage of the rest of those honest working chumps? Maybe you just want to explore and be a stellar cartographer, mapping out these shining systems in order to aid future explorers for generations.
You can do all of that and more in Elite: Dangerous. The game has been playable for a very long time on Steam, and Frontier Developments, the same studio behind the utterly addicting Planet Coaster, has finally primed Elite: Dangerous for its long-awaited console launch. It will be available on June 27 on PlayStation 4, but you place your pre-order starting May 30. This game has the potential to take over your life if you manage to find a good crew to run with. If you don’t believe me, check out the Steam reviewers with literal hundreds of hours spent in the game.
“Elite Dangerous is the definitive massively multiplayer space epic, bringing gaming’s original open world adventure to the modern generation with a connected galaxy, evolving narrative and the entirety of the Milky Way re-created at its full galactic proportions.
“Starting with only a small starship and a few credits, players do whatever it takes to earn the skill, knowledge, wealth and power to survive in a futuristic cutthroat galaxy and to stand among the ranks of the iconic Elite. In an age of galactic superpowers and interstellar war, every player’s story influences the unique connected gaming experience and handcrafted evolving narrative. Governments fall, battles are lost and won, and humanity’s frontier is reshaped, all by players’ actions.
“400 Billion Star Systems. Infinite Freedom. Blaze Your Own Trail.”
