| 29s | content including a new star system |
| 31s | enemies main missions side missions |
| 35s | in-game challenges quality of life |
| 37s | improvements and much more |
| 40s | we want as many international pilots as |
| 43s | possible to enjoy everspace 2 at full |
| 45s | capacity even during early access so |
| 48s | with this spring update we're rolling |
| 50s | out ui and subtitle localization for the |
| 53s | following languages |
| 54s | german |
| 55s | french |
| 56s | italian |
| 57s | spanish |
| 58s | brazilian portuguese polish czech |
| 62s | simplified and traditional chinese |
| 65s | japanese and korean |
| 67s | please note that translation is still |
| 69s | work in progress if you see anything |
| 72s | that seems off we encourage heading over |
| 74s | to crowden to provide suggestions as we |
| 76s | continue to work on bringing the |
| 78s | languages to one-to-one parody with the |
| 80s | english version for full release a link |
| 82s | to help out on this front can be found |
| 84s | in the description below |
| 88s | everspace 2 is receiving a gameplay |
| 90s | overhaul to several of its foundational |
| 93s | systems crafting now has a dedicated tab |
| 96s | in the menu |
| 98s | items formerly known as tech resources |
| 101s | are now components and live in a |
| 103s | dedicated inventory in the crafting menu |
| 105s | next to ores and crystals |
| 107s | if you're short a few parts for a |
| 109s | crucial upgrade components can now be |
| 111s | crafted on the |
| 113s | fly second blueprint acquisition has |
| 116s | been significantly streamlined now |
| 118s | requiring the sought after item to be |
| 120s | dismantled three times additionally |
| 123s | enemies now have a small chance to drop |
| 125s | blueprints outright |
| 127s | and finally for those seeking to |
| 128s | optimize their favorite equipment |
| 131s | catalysts have been added for item |
| 133s | customization |
| 134s | once crafted these can be used to assign |
| 137s | an item prefix onto an existing piece of |
| 140s | gear allowing you to squeeze every last |
| 142s | drop of performance from your arsenal |
| 144s | catalysts don't have to be used |
| 146s | immediately either as we've also made |
| 149s | sure that you can store them for when |
| 151s | needs arise |
| 152s | more catalyst variations will be added |
| 154s | in future updates |
| 158s | resources now generate in specific |
| 160s | regions across the game early systems |
| 163s | like ceto are brimming with iron and |
| 165s | atheium crystal while rarer ores can be |
| 167s | discovered further afield |
| 170s | minable resources are now visually |
| 172s | identifiable from afar |
| 175s | and once a specific perk has been |
| 177s | invested resources are catalogued |
| 179s | regarding their yield quantity making |
| 181s | them easy for the player to seek out |
| 183s | directly from the map |
| 185s | resource nodes drop their respective ore |
| 188s | or crystal when struck and each one has |
| 190s | a small chance to provide a more |
| 192s | valuable variant like pure iron or |
| 195s | flawless atheium |
| 196s | weapon specific item modifiers have been |
| 199s | added to effect mining yield and |
| 201s | increased resource rarity to let players |
| 203s | choose if they want better mining |
| 205s | capabilities |
| 208s | device progression has been |
| 210s | fundamentally changed upon acquiring a |
| 213s | device players may level them up to four |
| 216s | times improving the duration or strength |
| 219s | of device effects increasing the number |
| 221s | of charges and lowering cooldown timers |
| 224s | mastering a device unlocks three unique |
| 226s | modes to choose from so players can |
| 228s | match them to their play style |
| 230s | choose device upgrades carefully however |
| 233s | if you want to remove the levels you've |
| 235s | applied |
| 236s | maybe you want to put upgrades on a |
| 238s | different device for example you'll have |
| 240s | to spend crafting ingredients to peel |
| 242s | them off |
| 247s | the final ship class is primed and |
| 249s | polished for agile action introducing |
| 252s | the stinger class light fighter |
| 255s | the stinger is a device master so it |
| 257s | intrinsically gains a virtual level to |
| 259s | all devices equipped to it |
| 262s | upon using a device a third hardpoint is |
| 265s | activated to increase damage and proc |
| 267s | chances for a short duration |
| 269s | this effect can be maintained by |
| 272s | chaining devices together |
| 281s | the stinger's ult void swarm sends |
| 283s | thousands of frenzied microbots that |
| 285s | quickly reduce the opposing ships to |
| 287s | nothing |
| 290s | this controlled nano technology returns |
| 292s | to the stinger to restore its own hole |
| 294s | and armor based on the amount of damage |
| 297s | dealt which usually is a lot |
| 304s | [Music] |
| 307s | many systems like experience |
| 308s | distribution and item energy management |
| 311s | have had additional tuning and balancing |
| 313s | at the foundational level to promote |
| 316s | greater decision making player ships |
| 318s | have been adjusted to better reflect |
| 320s | their class specific features if the |
| 322s | progression still seems to be |
| 324s | unforgiving or perhaps too easy our |
| 327s | first iteration of a difficulty selector |
| 329s | is now available |
| 333s | the summer update will unveil several |
| 334s | new factions but we've extended the |
| 337s | current mission chain so players can get |
| 339s | a first taste as to what the okar prime |
| 341s | and their unique combat abilities are |
| 344s | all about |
| 345s | it's been a busy last few months getting |
| 348s | this update out the door as well as |
| 350s | preparing a new system to be released in |
| 352s | the drake gang wars update this summer |
| 355s | and also while a native linux build of |
| 359s | the game will be available at full |
| 360s | release optimizations have been made to |
| 363s | the windows version to ensure a decent |
| 366s | experience on the steam deck |
| 369s | a link to the full patch notes can be |
| 371s | found in the description |
