System Colonisation is an upcoming, brand-new feature for ED: Odyssey. Claim star systems with player-led, free-form expansion in the galaxy.[1] The Bubble is no longer static.[1]

Overview

Frontier released limited information about system colonisation:

  • Colonisation is a player-driven way to expand the Bubble and colonise new systems[2]
  • Players will be able to colonise unpopulated systems within a certain distance of populated systems (distance yet to be revealed)[2]
  • Once players have colonised a system, they will begin building a starport[2]
  • After the starport is built, players will have the choice to expand within the system--building new assets, such as starports, settlements, outposts, etc)--which will dictate the economy of the system.[2]
  • Players can claim multiple systems, but one at a time--a colonised system must have the primary starport built before the players can begin colonising another system.[2]

Development

System Colonisation was first unveiled during a Frontier Unlocked livestream on 30 October 2024.[2]
