It’s the beginning of a new chapter in Elite Dangerous as the Aftermath saga officially begins alongside the promised 4.0 codebase merge for PC.

Aftermath follows the events that started with the destruction of a superweapon that was meant to wipe out the Thargoids once and for all. Thargoids have now set their sights on inhabited systems and multiple Thargoid Death Stars, a.k.a. Stargoids are now travelling at breakneck speeds towards the Core Systems.

As for the 4.0 codebase update, it promises significant improvements to the stability of the game, more streamlined update processes, and new narrative tools and features. More information about the 4.0 update can be found on the Elite Dangerous official site.

Meanwhile, console transfers continue as Frontier Developments tries to cope with the sheer number of transfer requests.
