While Rockfish Games will showcase most of the big update on September 22, 2023, they already revealed what Everspace 2 has in store for the fans via a text post.
If the post is anything to go by, the devs are not keen on resting on their laurels.
There are three main categories of content that will be delivered - gameplay features, ship customisation and quality-of-life improvements.
Gameplay features
- 10 new item sets (34 new item variants)
- 4 new catalysts
- 40 new item attributes
- Modify item: Reroll item attributes
- Added Khala Perk to discover remaining secrets
- Added Tareen Perk to sell crafting resources

Rockfish folks are firing on all cylinders
Ship customisation
- 15 new Tier 4 wings
- Ship color randomized
- Ship module randomizer
While not as numerous as the gameplay features section, the customisation always adds a lot to replayability and immersion which should technically augment the gameplay aspects on top of bringing eye candy.
Quality of life changes
- Quicksave / Quickload
- Auto-save improvements(PC-only)
- Inertia Dampener customization
- UI additions and improvements (set item icons, item trait icon, etc)
- 21:9 aspect ratio HUD improvements
Even though all of these changes are welcome, we somehow have a feeling that quicksave and quickload additions will be the main attraction of the update.
