About X Rebirth

✦ AI summary

Pilot your battered ship through a vast, fully simulated universe where you can trade goods across sprawling space cities, engage in epic fleet battles, and build your own empire of stations and factories. Choose your own path as a trader, pirate, military commander, or explorer in this deep sandbox that blends action-packed combat, complex economics, and an intricate sci-fi story that unfolds at your pace.

In the distant future, the X universe faces a period of profound and irrevocable change. While the universe stumbles towards an uncertain future, countless adventures await as new enemies rise in search of power. Enter a young adventurer and his unlikely female ally traveling in an old, battered ship with a glorious past - two people alone against the galaxy, playing a key part in the events to come. The fate of the universe rests in the hands of the player...

X Rebirth represents a spectacular new beginning for the X series, offering loyal fans and newcomers alike a vast, vivid and extremely detailed universe to explore throughout the game. Varied gameplay elements such as action-packed space combat, detailed trading mechanics and high-speed space exploration with fast travel allow players to experience a truly unique space saga that will keep them hooked for dozens of hours. X Rebirth features a whole new user experience - it is easier than ever to start with, and remains as deep as fans expect it.

FEATURES



TRADE! A fully simulated economy that means your actions really do matter. Travel the space highways to find profit in gigantic space cities, swarming with ships and drones.

++ Every ship you see has a task. Stop a freighter from reaching its destination and its cargo will be stopped too, causing prices to rise. ++

FIGHT! From small scale skirmishes to epic fleet encounters, battles in the X Universe know no limits. Choose to fight for the military, work for the police or be a lawless pirate, or if you prefer just fight when you need to defend yourself - it's up to you.

++ Take the action right into massive structures. Target turrets and shield generators to weaken your enemy, damage engines and jump drives to prevent their ships from escaping, or stop their factories producing to cripple their economy. ++

BUILD! Create your own empire! From trading stations to large factories, farms to hightech military complexes, everything can belong to you. Build for trade and profit or to strengthen your military presence and dominate your enemies.

++ Extend and upgrade your stations to make them operate more efficiently, with every element visible in glorious animated detail. Harvest your own resources to keep your empire running smoothly. ++

THINK! A rich, detailed history and a deep complex plot await you, but you are free to decide when and where to take part. Explore the universe at your own pace - choose your own path and create your own destiny.

++ Get up-close and personal with aliens and humans alike. Land on stations, meet people, then accept missions from them or hire them as crew members for your ships. ++

TRADE, FIGHT, BUILD, THINK... in the X Universe - the biggest sandbox this side of the galaxy.

Not Recommended. This is the game that made me stop pre-ordering forever. This is made by the same team from the great X3 games. It wasn’t rushed by a new team or an outside publisher, it was just a massive unforced error. Ripping out what made X special and replaced it with broken trading/commands (XML save edits required), endless looping traffic-jam AI, tedious copy-pasted station walking with repetitive dialogue, annoying co-pilot and a worse UI. Unlike No Man’s Sky, X Rebirth's shonky release never got a redemption. Skip this one completely.

Developed and published by Egosoft, X Rebirth is a bold reimagining of the long-running X franchise that blends an expansive space simulation with an accessible story-driven framework. Rather than simply refining the mechanics of its predecessors, the game introduces a fresh universe, redesigned gameplay systems, and a stronger narrative focus while maintaining the series' defining features of economic management, exploration, combat, and player freedom. It places players in a massive science fiction sandbox where every decision, whether commercial or military, contributes to shaping a living galaxy filled with countless opportunities. The game's most impressive accomplishment is its dynamic universe. Every region is populated with traders, miners, security forces, pirates, and industrial stations that operate as part of an interconnected economy. Goods are continuously produced, transported, bought, and consumed, creating a believable simulation where market conditions constantly evolve. Rather than relying on static resources, players are encouraged to study supply chains, identify profitable trade routes, and exploit shortages to build wealth. This economic depth gives every su…

A game so bad, Egosoft apologized for making and releasing it. (no cap, they actually apologized for the absolutely terrible launch state and production, then released x4 foundations fixing most of the game for more money.) this is the game that pretty much stopped me from purchasing anything before either testing the game out, or having a working copy, no pre orders anymore. even X4 is not recommended. X3TC and AP were the best of the series bar none.

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
