<div style="padding: 0.5em 1em;">In 1984 a video game named [[Elite]], written by David Braben and Ian Bell, was released to the public. It quickly became one of the most successful and influential space simulator games of all time. 
 
In 1993 [[Frontier: Elite II]], a sequel to the original Elite game was published by Gametek, and allowed David to establish [[Frontier Developments]] in 1994. In 1995 Frontier Developments released [[Frontier: First Encounters]], also known as "Elite III". 
 
The Frontier titles are famous for their 1:1 scale, dynamic star systems, realistic physics and seamless freeform landings. 
 
After a period of developing other games, Frontier announced their plans to create another sequel to Elite and in 2012 they began a crowdfunding project for [[Elite Dangerous]]. After a period of Alpha and Beta testing which was open to backers Elite: Dangerous was released on December 16, 2014.</div>
