Will Egosoft continue this new tradition and reveal next step in August 2021?

As you well know, we don't pre-announce announcements, so questions like this are pretty pointless.

To some extend, Gregory likes doing that. But usually more like a "save the date" - close to the announcements. :)

Next DLC is going to be about piracy. They received official funding. Here you can already find a feature list (in german).

More sectors, more story, new pirate factions. Sounds good.

Oh, sneaky!

I would love to see a DLC expanding on pirate factions and gameplay. Lets hope this is true!

I think it is logical to put dates when you have the projects on track. We would not like this to become a STCITY or a NOMSKY. I believe that the management of the company is excellently executed. Maybe I would have bet more at the beginning on marketing but every time they do it better so I have nothing more to add. They are meeting and exceeding all expectations.

Google translate for the win...

"X4: Ahoy (working title)" is the third content expansion for the space simulation / sandbox game "X4: Foundations", which was first published in 2018. The focus here is on strengthening the playful element of piracy through a significant expansion of the game universe through content elements such as sectors, spaceships, space stations, characters and new factions. In addition, there will be a new storyline that will deal with the topic of piracy in the X-Universe and in particular with the new pirate factions."

I hope they change the name, lol... that's just terrible

That ship definitely looks combat worthy and able to quickly get away with some loot.

i hope they expand upon the masking feature. Maybe even for other ships to fly with you (if working travel drive formation flying ever becomes a thing :D ). Would be cool to play as a lawful tycoon with a secret supervillain identity and a small gang.

Also worth noting that the money they got from the BMVI funding program is twice as much as they got for Cradle. I don't think you can conclude anything about the size of the DLC from that. But it seems like Egosoft are generally getting more popularity and support.

I'm all for beefing up the pirate factions into something more challenging and interesting.

Brute force and ignorance solves all problems, just not very efficiently.

If brute force isn't working, then you aren't using enough.

Well, pirates were on my guess list alternative if Borons will not be next DLC.

Ahoy is rather fitting title.

I'm not hyped, but as long as they add new sectors, new ships, new factions and new plots and PIRATE ALLEYS, then I welcome it and be happy to put my money in it.
Seems like with X4 Egosoft finally nailed the sweet spot of consistent quality DLCs.



BTW, here is my bet on DLC4 - no it wont be Borons, it will be Corporations (with Stock Market).

BTW2 - the ship in the screenshot looks wicket!
