On July 26, 2018, Braben said "We’ve continued to support and nurture the existing franchises. Elite Dangerous has continued to grow, the team size is actually getting bigger. The plan was – beyond the current season for Elite, which is mostly announced – there are a lot of things that we will be announcing that are really exciting, some of which will be free, some of which will be paid."<ref>[https://wccftech.com/frontier-next-game-unveiled-late-2018/ Frontier’s Next Game To Be Unveiled in Late 2018/Early 2019; Elite Dangerous Is Getting Exciting Things] - July 26, 2018

Obsidian Ant said after visiting the [[Frontier Developments|Frontier]] offices on June 9 2017 ''"Another thing that I know has been concerning people is Frontier's talk about working on the "core mechanics" of the game after 2.4.  Some people feel this means the game is going into maintenance mode with Frontier simply working on bug fixes and minor changes. We got the chance to ask for clarification on this - and the "core mechanic" changes actually means that Frontier are going to flesh out existing game mechanics and give the developers the opportunity to bring these aspects of the game inline with the original concepts as well as to perhaps add further enhancements where they can. So it seems that this is going to be big deal stuff, rather than just small tweaks."<ref name=":1">https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/356790-My-visit-to-Frontier-Developments-and-the-Future-of-the-Game</ref>''
 
''"Another thing I've seen people wonder about, is whether or not there will be new features in the future updates.  Good news is that there will still be new content added to the game along with new headline features.  However Frontier are not willing to talk about what that stuff is just yet."''<ref name=":1" />
