Huge space sandbox game X4 starts “a new era” with complete ship rework

There’s a lot of variety to the best space games. Starfield keeps the action simple and approachable. Everspace 2 offers a Diablo-like game that puts combat first. Elite Dangerous presents scale and spectacle. No Man’s Sky enables vast player customization. Eve Online is an intricate web of systems and social interactions. Leaning towards the back half of that list is X4: Foundations, a tremendously deep simulation sandbox game that is probably ‘too much’ for some. A new update, however, has just revolutionized its entire flying model to make your adventures feel “smoother, more responsive, and more immersive than ever.”
