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]

This can be done by an individual commander or a group.

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]

More details will be disclosed during Frontier Unlocked on 27 November 2024.

Development

Since 2019, there was speculation about what the new feature could be such as Base Building. System Colonisation was first unveiled during a Frontier Unlocked livestream on 30 October 2024.[2]
