On June 3, 2020, Frontier Developments announced the game's second expansion, ''[[Elite Dangerous: Odyssey]]'', would release in Q1 2021. Among other key features, ''Odyssey'' included On Foot functionality, at the time referred to by the community and unofficially by the developers as "Space Legs", a name coined over the years for the highly-anticipated feature. The pre-alpha trailer for ''Odyssey'' showed three Commanders in armoured space suits with weapons walking on foot across an arid terrestrial world with a presumably non-breathable atmosphere. The Commanders arrive at a small surface structure just as an [[Anaconda]] touches down in an adjacent landing zone.<ref name="Odyssey">[https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/elite-dangerous-odyssey-announcement.546389/ Frontier Forums: Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Announcement]</ref>
