gamescom is once again taking place in digital form only. Of course, that won't stop us from celebrating our games. In addition to our participation in this year's Indie Arena Booth, we're excited to offer you our biggest discount ever on X4: Foundations. For the next 7 days, you have the opportunity to save 50% on your purchase of X4: Foundations! Older titles in the X series are reduced in price by even more - up to 90% this week.

So, if you haven't jumped into X4: Foundations yet, now is a great time to do so. You’ll also be able to look forward to the upcoming 4.10 update, in which we are adding yet more enhancements and new features to the game. For more information on the eagerly awaited changes, check out our Steam Newshub, our website, our social media channels and the Inside Egosoft podcast.

We look forward to welcoming you to the X Universe, and thank you for your support!

As we approach the end of the road that leads to the release of the 4.10 update for X4: Foundations, we are once again releasing a new beta version today. Beta 6 is now available to download, and we thank you in advance for your contributions to the beta test.

The full list of changes in 4.10 Beta 6 is available in our forum.

Multiverse Team Seasons postponed
We would also like to inform you of a change of plan regarding the release of the new "Multiverse Team Seasons" game mode. We need a little more time to make Multiverse Team Seasons into the captivating new feature we originally envisioned it to be. In order not to delay the release of the 4.10 update, including the new Custom Game Start feature and the extended Station Editor, we have therefore decided to postpone the introduction of the Multiverse Team Seasons feature. This feature will not now be part of the 4.10 update, as previously announced, and will instead be introduced in a later update for X4: Foundations.

If you would like to know more about the Multiverse Team Seasons, we recommend Episode 1 of the Inside Egosoft Podcast, in which Egosoft's founder and Managing Director Bernd Lehahn describes the new feature.
