Official Artbook & Soundtrack
In tandem with the expansion’s release, ROCKFISH Games will launch a digital artbook and soundtrack DLC, capturing the creative process behind EVERSPACE 2’s colorful tapestry of interstellar locales and the music that underscores its white-knuckle dogfights.
Perfect Timing for a Space Adventure
Developer ROCKFISH Games has a history of listening to fan feedback, and Wrath of the Ancients is a prime example of that approach. CEO and Co-Founder Michael Schade states, “Space pilots only have a short while longer to wait… The team has pulled out all the stops for Wrath of the Ancients, crafting stunning content for players around the globe.”
The expansion, partially funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action of Germany, continues EVERSPACE 2’s tradition of bridging dynamic space combat with a robust storyline. Schade notes that such grants help keep smaller studios independent and capable of delivering ambitious expansions that might otherwise stall in development limbo.
Beyond the Expansion: Bundles & Console Editions

Alongside the Wrath of the Ancients expansion, console players can look forward to a Galactic Edition for Xbox and PlayStation, bundling the base game and all expansions in one tidy package. The new artbook and soundtrack DLC will release on PC, collecting the mesmerizing environments and compositions created since EVERSPACE 2’s initial debut.
EVERSPACE 2 is currently available for $49.99/€49.99/£44.99/¥6930 on Steam, GOG, PlayStation, Xbox, and the Microsoft Store, fully voiced in English and German, with additional localization in 13 languages.
