Rockfish Games has brought Everspace 2 to a new platform, shadow-dropping the Nintendo Switch 2 version of its grand space adventure in a neat bundle with all the prior DLC. Packing 10 star systems, more than 50 hours of story content, and more, Everspace 2: Galactic Edition is bringing the complete bundle to gamers on the go.

"We've heard time and again from the EVERSPACE community that they'd love to play their favourite space game series on Switch 2, and we're pleased to deliver. As a trusted studio partner, Engine Software has been key in delivering EVERSPACE 2 to Switch 2, finding clever ways to optimize our premium PC title for the latest Nintendo hardware. Hats off to the team on the incredible work!" said Rockfish Games CEO and co-founder Michael Schade in a press release.

The game runs at a capped 30fps on Nintendo Switch 2, and the Galactic Edition bundle is a digital-only purchase, available on the Nintendo Switch 2 eShop for 49.99 USD / 49.99 Euro / 39.99 GBP / 6.980 JPY.

"While content plans for EVERSPACE 2 are wrapped up, we're not done telling stories in the EVERSPACE universe or creating awesome action-packed space adventures. While it will be a while before we can reveal anything, I can't wait to show our community of space game fans the incredibly exciting things we've been working on," Schade added.

Everspace 2: Galactic Edition is available on other platforms, but is more expensive than the Switch 2 version. On Steam, for example, it currently costs £60.76. The release on Nintendo Switch 2 marks the end of one adventure, but as Schade said, it seems this opens the door for the next story in Everspace's galactic journey.
