- Unveiling X3: Farnham's Legacy – a new chapter for an old favourite - 6 April 2021
We at Egosoft have been working on our current title, X4: Foundations, and have recently released a major 4.00 update, as well as a new expansion, X4: Cradle of Humanity. In the meantime, a new product has emerged from our DevNet community that we would like to tell you about. Almost ten years ago, with the release of X3: Albion Prelude, Egosoft decided to bring development of titles based on the long-running X3 game engine to an end. However, a dedicated group of players from our DevNet community had other ideas! The X3: Farnham's Legacy project kicked off in earnest in 2016 but, as with any community project, there were times when progress was faster than others. Five years on, and the team are now finally ready to show you their creation! Set in the years after X3: Albion Prelude, as the chaos caused by the gate shutdown really takes hold, X3: Farnham's Legacy starts very differently…

- X4: Foundations revisiting and expanding spacebasics - 29 August 2017
Spaceship explore-o-trade-a-shoot-y-sandbox series X will return revamped and expanded with X4: Foundations , developers Egosoft announced over the weekend. They’ve muttered for years about what they’d fix and changed after 2013’s disappointing X: Rebirth and lawks, it looks like they’ve learned a lot. Spacemen will once again be able to fly every ship in the game rather than being locked to one, for starters. Transporters will let us teleport around between ships, the economy is more complex, factions are more alive, and… ah here, watch the announcement video introducing all this and more: (more…)

- X3: Terran Conflict 3.3 Update Released - 19 April 2017
Since the last update, we've taken the opportunity to do a couple of things with these games. Most of these are fixes, and have been applied to both games (X3: TC + X3: AP); those of you with many playing hours will be pleased to note that one of these addresses the performance and memory issues that can occur with certain missions. Modders will find a few small improvements in X3AP, and players who use the Russian and Chinese localisations will hopefully be pleased to see text improvements that had been made in X3AP have now been back-ported to X3TC. Also back-ported to X3TC, though currently only in the Windows version, is the controller support from X3AP. X3:TC 3.3 Changelog: Added controller support (Windows only). Updated Chinese and Russian localisation files. Fixed various crashes and enabled crash dump generation. Fixed various issues with joystick control. Fixed mission-related…

- X3: Terran Conflict Bonus Package now available on Steam - 17 June 2014
The Bonus Package for X3: Terran Conflict has just been released on Steam. It's a free collection of script plugins that have been created by members of the Egosoft forum community. Egosoft has selected them as extensions that fit well into, and do not destroy, the balance of the game. To access the bonus content, simply install it from the store page. The Bonus Package will also show up in the DLC tab of the game properties, where you have the option to uninstall it. If you have previously installed the non-Steam version of the Bonus Package, it is recommended that you uninstall it first.
