Rockfish Games is marking the explosive launch of Everspace 2 with a brand new accolades trailer. Since its launch early last month, over 300,000 copies of the game have been sold. ES2 has also scored well with critics and fans alike. At Metacritic, the game sits at a comfortable 82, and over at OpenCritic, it has earned a respectable 83 from global reviewers.
To mark the awesome numbers, developers released an accolades trailer packed with gameplay and review snippets from several outlets.
“This has been a fantastic launch for Rockfish games, our biggest yet! The team’s done an amazing job, and we’re now reaping the fruits of our hard work of the past five years and beyond. We hit our commercial goals in terms of product visibility, game downloads, and net revenue,” says ROCKFISH Games CEO Michael Schade. “Even more rewarding is seeing our amazing community and space fans in the media love what we’ve built. This paints a bright future for our studio and Everspace as a franchise. We have so much more planned, and I can’t wait for us to share what we’ve been working on for our first free update later this year and the massive expansion coming in the second half of 2024.”
