Is this the Archivist's Armistice, or Tarosh's Truce? You tell us!
Hey everyone,
Let's just kick right to the chase, because we've got a lot of stuff on the way: Amplitude will be celebrating its 7th anniversary three days from now. We've got a LOT of cool stuff coming your way, starting with:
Vaulters Expansion - coming January 25th
This first Endless Space 2 Expansion re-introduces players to the Vaulters, our all-time fan favorite civilization. Yup, most of you folks guessed that one right.

A new civilization means, as usual, a new way to play: the Vaulters will have the ability to teleport and use the Argosy - their legacy colony ship featured in the Prologue video.
They will also have their own heroes (including the famous Opbot), technologies, buildings, a new starting special node, the Sisters of Mercy minor civilization that they brought with them from Auriga, and of course, a brand-new main quest. Will they discover the truth about their Gods? Will they find a new home to start all over? Will they save their people that stayed on Auriga?
The Expansion will also feature new exotic combat modules like boarding and taking control of ships, as well as the Pirate Diplomacy gameplay enabling negotiations with their leader.
The Vaulters expansion will be released on the 25th, and you can already preorder for 10% off on Steam this week for $9.89, down from the full price of $10.99.
