A galaxy of knowledge on Elite: Dangerous.
Elite: Dangerous is an epic space game. Pilot your own ship and trade, blast, explore, sneak, buy, barter, mission, co-op play, solo play your way to the top accolade in the galaxy: Elite! This is the latest installment of the seminal open-world, go-anywhere, do anything space game which, since its launch in 1984 has spawned and inspired a long tradition of open world and space games. But it started with Elite by Ian Bell and David Braben - one of the most successful games of all times. In the 1990's, David Braben created sequels Frontier: Elite II and Frontier: First Encounters (Elite 3)
