Hello everybody,


Today marks the release of the final patch in the series of patches that we announced a couple of months back for Endless Space 2.

The purpose of these patches was to resolve several bugs and issues reported by the community, and while we are confident that many of the worst problems have now been tackled, we also acknowledge that we were not able to address everything brought up by the community.

Endless Space 2 now offers a much more stable experience, and even though we have concluded this series of patches, we will still be keeping an eye out for your feedback and thoughts on your experiences playing Endless Space 2, and of course your reports on any issues you might encounter.

We want to thank you again for your patience, your dedication, and your passion for the Endless Universe.
