About the Game

ENDLESS™ Space 2 is a Strategic Space Opera set in a mysterious universe.
Your story unfolds in a galaxy that was first colonized by God-like beings known as the “ENDLESS™”, who rose and fell eons ago. All that remains of them are mystical ruins, powerful artifacts, and a strange, near-magical substance known as Dust.

One More Turn


ENDLESS™ Space 2 takes the classic “one more turn” formula to new heights. You will explore mysterious star systems, discover the secrets of ancient races, build colonies on distant planets, exploit trade routes, develop advanced technologies of unthinkable power; and, of course encounter new life forms to understand, to court or to conquer.


As a leader, you have to manage your populations like never before as they react dynamically to your decisions and to their environment, expressing their will through political parties, dictating the laws that your Senate can pass. Will you be a beloved natural leader or will you manipulate your populations to your benefit?

Epic Space Battles


Watch your fighters fly past huge cruisers while lasers rip their hulls apart in epic real-time space battles. Detailed after action reports will help you adapt your strategy for the next confrontations.


Design your ships, assemble your fleets and carefully adapt your battle plans to overcome your enemies. Once you think you’ve done it all, take it online against seven other players.

Strategic Space Opera


Immerse yourself in the ENDLESS™ Universe. The galaxy belongs to the civilization that controls Dust and uncovers its secrets… but were the ENDLESS™ alone in the galaxy? What is the true origin of Dust?


Lead one of eight civilizations, each with a unique playstyle affinity and story quest, and build great stellar empires capable of imposing your vision on the Galaxy!


Find out more about the Academy and its powerful cast of Heroes, that you can recruit and train to become fleet admirals, system governors or influential senators.

Whether you prefer long-range artillery, close-combat brawlers, or a mix, the customization system empowers you to adapt to challenges while keeping the process streamlined and engaging.

        Replayability is unmatched, with diverse factions, customizable gameplay settings, and countless ways to approach each game. The variety ensures no two playthroughs feel the same, earning replayability a perfect 10/10.

        If you like 4X Space Games you will like this game. I have played this a lot since the latest rebalance patch learning a lot in the course of it. I loved and played the endless games since endless space 1. But never actually dove this deep into the meat of them like I have in recent days. And I keep coming back trying new strategies with new races.

        A lot of the negative reviews describe the game as too shallow compared with stellaris or galactic civilizations.

        I actually liek endless space a lot more than those two for some quite specific reasons first among them is this:

        In my view Endless Space 2 Streamlines my biggest pain points with Stellaris and GalCiv.

        It is turn based and thus imho a lot more manageable in late game compared to Stellaris. I probably would be tied between Stellaris and ES2 if both were turn based.

        And for GalCiv I like ES2's aproach of managing Systems as opposed to planets in GalCiv WAY BETTER. The planet surface minigame in GalCiv annoys to no end and is just complexity for complexity's sake imho. It does not make the game more fun for me.

        And still I do not find the systems in place in ES2 shallow as some would say. In fact it has more depth, because you can build any system imporvement in every single system if you like to. But there is a lot of depth when it comes to figuring out good build orders and what improvements NOT to build.

        And story wise I also like what is offered in ES2 much better than any of the other two.

        I really hope there will be an Endless Space 3. I can't wait to see how Amplitude implements what they learned since 2017 in a new installment.

        This is the most enjoyable 4X game and one of the best strategy games I've ever played. The glactic empire building and management has strong immersive themes that I liked. The factions have strong flavors to the game's playstyle. Also this game offers the best game soundtrack collection I've heard. It seamlessly set inspiring tones for a space-empire building game.

        I feel compelled to write a review for this great game. I've neglected my duty as a gamer in not identifying games that I truly enjoy. I gave my first review for No Man's Sky, and felt that it was well overdue. I am now giving my review to this Endless Space game which I love. I come back to it time after time. I really enjoy the breadth and depth of the game. This is not supposed to be an in depth review, but more of a surface treatment. I love the game.

        After putting nearly 70 hours into this game, I can see why its a "love it or hate it" in the 4X community. Instead of the real time, in depth focus Stellaris has, Endless Space 2 is turn based and plays much like Sid Meier's Civilization games. You have ship building, economic oversight, empire expansion and development, and side stories to keep you occupied as Stellaris would, but its a completely different tune. As other reviewers state, the music and artwork are amazing, with simplified systems for ship building and tech research that I personally enjoy. That, and each faction you get to choose from offer their own unique play styles and stories.

        If you've been eyeballing this game, I recommend it, with caution that it has a huge learning curve.

        Very interesting game, good graphics, interesting politic system, economic system is nice and easy to pick up. Not as brutal as stellaris and more role playing than most of 4x. Overall very good game and good immersion BUT AI is rather weak so it is not hard to defeat it. I enjoyed this game a lot (played before Civ, Stellaris and Endless legend) if only AI was better.

        Endless Space 2 is like a Civilization game we never got. The aspect of controlling every individual aspect of your empire is outstanding and you can use that to build a great story using custom factions as well as the empire specific main quests available. Modding also adds new additions and updates to keep this gem feeling fresh even after hundreds of hours and days away from it. Truly a wonderful experience especially for masters of micro-management and fellow xenocide enjoyers.

        It's genuinely awesome to see Amplitude bring in modders from the community to address some of the major issues with the game after all this time. Want to leave a positive review regarding this because I'd love to see this happen again to address things they didn't have time to fix with re-awakening. Nakalim feel much more interesting to play now, and interacting with the Academy is also significantly better as you're not just trying to compete for the Spear of Isyander role.

        This is nearly a good game. With some concentrated effort it could be a good game, but as it stands the aggravation of playing outweighs the pleasure.
        There are lots of minor flaws, for example there isn't a way to see how many ships of a particular design you have, so if you want to rationalise ship designs you have to manually check through every fleet. The diplomatic system allows your opponent to keep offering a peace treaty every turn, which costs you resources if you say no. One race has 'arkships' which can sit in a system and you can't do anything about them. Another race has the ability to just materialise a fleet in any of your systems, destroy all planetary defences and take over your planets all in the space of a turn.
        I could go on, but you get the idea. It's fundamentally flawed.

        This game is very good in every regard. Technically it runs excellently, the factions are very different and have unique and interesting lore, the atmosphere is gorgeous, and the music, art and writing all work together.

        For me, this is one of the all-time grand strategy games, and probably the definitive one set in space.

        Good Space game
        This game reminds me something along the lines of CIVILIZATION Series and the Total War series just sent in the aspect of space where you are conquering parts of the space and total domination in the sense maintaining the course of the lines to get there and progress keeping an eye on your units and the population levels that you have. This game is most definitely a grind game to progress with a huge learning curve in my opinion, something that I will eventually come back to, to play some more but not in a minute I think just because I know how much it can suck you in to keep playing and wanting to play more in the game and wanting to progress.

        In my opinion this is a really good game and made very well. But due the length that you have to play and the learning curve that you have to undergo to understand it. Some people might like that and it is more than amazing to give it a go. However due to the shelve life that this game has I do highly recommend waiting for sale to come out for it or even a bundle game deal to get all of them to play as well.

        A unique experience for me as far as space strategy games go, the visuals certainly are beautiful & aesthetically pleasing. An almost overwhelming amount of features & lore made the game kinda daunting, but unless you're a dumb nigga you can probably figure it out. A beautiful game, but unfortunately like so many others it's ignored. Maybe if it was a FPS that glorified the deaths of Iraqi childre...I mean jr. terrorists it'd get more attention

        I'd say you should buy this game and support the developer or I'll have sex with your dad, but he's currently underneath my desk gargling balls like his cheeks are stuffed with MilkDuds, and boy is there lot of saliva. Anyways I give this game a 8.7/10, and definitely think it's worth the hassle of figuring out. Cop this game, start up your spaceship, and explore!

        Introduction


        ENDLESS Space 2 is a turn-based 4X strategy game that lets you take command of one of many unique factions in a vast, procedurally generated galaxy. As the sequel to the original ENDLESS Space, this game builds upon its predecessor's foundation, offering a richer, more complex, and visually stunning experience.

        Stability and Performance


        The game runs smoothly and stably on an average PC. There are very few bugs, and the animations are appealing. The space battle simulator is well-executed and quite unique. While it may not be as engaging for smaller skirmishes, it shines in decisive battles, offering a great experience.

        Gameplay and Mechanics


        The core gameplay revolves around the classic 4X elements: eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate. From the moment you start your journey, you are thrust into a galaxy filled with mysteries, rival empires, and countless opportunities. One of the game's standout features is its diverse selection of factions, each with its own lore, playstyle, and unique mechanics.

        It is generally recommended to stick with the standard factions, but creating your own custom faction can be a fun change of pace, even if it tends to be a bit unbalanced. Research is extremely delicate and often the key to success. Designing your own ship types is engaging, though it doesn't offer a vast array of meaningful variations, limiting its depth somewhat.

        Atmosphere


        The atmosphere is incredibly immersive, with each faction's musical score being brilliantly composed. The mood draws you in from the start, enhancing the overall experience. However, the voice acting could be a bit more extensive to add even more depth to the game.

        Conclusion


        The game, especially with its additional DLCs, completely captivated me. It's a 5/5 for a turn-based strategy game with optional real-time elements (if enabled; during the round).

        Super unique and enjoyable playable races. Beautiful art style and I adore the setting.
        Not too much variety after about 60 hrs however, by that time you will have probably engaged with all of the game mechanics on offer and there are most certainly optimised build orders. I have played to completion all races at least once on large maps and each victory type getting up to harder difficulties.
        Due to race specialities you can be rather restricted in a couple playstyles for each. As such, replayabillity diminishes after you complete a few runs with each faction. Each faction is fairly unique, with flavour for you to find your favourite. Cravers all the way.
        You can easily find ways to become obscenely overpowered, but I actually enjoy doing so. It remains in keeping with the games overall aesthetic and is just fun to do.
        Totally recommended for the soundtrack and lore alone, super enjoyable. Most likely you can easily get around 100hrs out of the game, more than enough for the asking price.

        Overly complicated at times, but very well presented. More grown-up than the very disappointing GC4. Runs well on older hardware. Worth a look on sale.

        So you are looking at this and at Stellaris. Both games are quite similar. The main difference is that Paradox (Stelaris dev) is quite greedy and there is no chance to buy entire series because by the time you will finish playthrough they will release another two DLCs and I'm not kidding. And it will end up with you playing incomplete game. This game is complete and additionally you can actually complete it. Stellaris will crash in late game and in general Stelaris is not designed for completion. This one is hard to win but it's possible. Anyway if you are in a mood for space opera I think this one is the best and reasonably priced.

        Youll play this game and be trying your damndest and everything will look like its going well and then some rando youve never seen before shows up with 80 million death ships and its over like the last 5 hours of your life meant nothing at all.

        The only real downside of this 4x game is that there's not much tactical combat apart from choosing strategy, and that the technobabble for various techs is not the greatest. Kind of zany and funny sometimes.

        Otherwise - complexity, it's pretty much on par with the best of the genre.

        Stellaris may look more complex, but it's really not.

        I like Endless Legend more but this is also a very good game that bears comparison with classics like Master of Orion 2. It also has asymmetric yet mostly balanced races, in contrast to somewhat same-y Stellaris or Civ.

        Smooth multiplayer makes for a great co-op or pvp experience
        Decisions feel/are impactful
        Factions/Races are very assymetric and fun

        If you like the idea of turn-based strategy about building a civilization across the galaxy which is full of quests, wonders etc. then this is a game for you! :)

        I've put 70 hours into this game. I kept thinking I am missing something with all of these positive reviews, I am not. Stellaris is flawed but better. I wish they wouldn't nickel and dime us for all their DLC content.
        Endless Space 2 has very generic systems, I am exploring to find 2 resources that I need for some of my tech which are on two systems when I explored 90% of the galaxy. The feel of the new systems I discover lack anything really unique, yet it wants to do an animation like they are showing me some new fantastic thing. look another red ball planet with very hot climate. really that animation is a waste of time and the relevant information is given to you in the system view such as the resources and if you have unlocked the ability to colonize that type. Rather than making a deeper more dynamic game play they put in animations when you discover or colonize a new place. I start thinking the complete lack of some resources is a bug, start new game rinse, repeat for about 20 hours before I realize this is a game mechanic that totally makes it better somehow by just having one of the major resources on the far side of the map. I don't find the tech research layout appealing either, having to hover over each symbol for a research map to see what it actually unlocks seems like a waste of time. I do not want to memorize what every piece of tech is and what the sub items it unlocks are, I would rather hover and get all the information about it, like they do with the fleets. since some resources I need don't exist near me in the game I decided to not bother with the tech requiring the missing resources (it is not always the same resource) and set out to conquer an enemy. start a war take a 2 planets and the AI starts a stalemate tactic by building a massive fleet it parks on a system I was laying siege to. AI refuses to attack me. After 15 turns of waiting for an attack I realize that I need to attack them and completely destroy them if I want to conquer the system. I can only attack with one fleet at a time and the game limits the size of my fleets, which means the AI fleet more powerful than any single fleet I can build. The AI fleet is so massive that the best fleet I have lost 14 out of 23 ships in the first engagement. the other fleet I had there was completely wiped out and so was a behemoth. I designed some ships and built two new fleets. I moved them both to the system, one focused on long and med range and one on short w/ medium since my first fleet was balanced in all 3. trying to see which tactic will give me the edge. those two fleets suffered the same fate back to back as the first. AI fleet is healed because it is in it's own system every time, so I am getting nowhere and burned through massive resources. So no advantage was gained regardless of which tactic I use. I try moving to another system the fleet follows me and does the same thing before I can deplete the manpower in that system enough to give me an advantage in a ground strike. So i build a fleet heavy in ground troops and before the AI fleet arrives launch an invasion. My ground forces are wiped out no matter which tactic I use even though my ground forces are almost triple what the planet has I don't make a dent and have to retreat. I accept the AI request for peace(refusing costs you diplomatic influence because reasons). So I build new fleets and go to war with another AI. That AI does the same tactic. This was after I turned all the settings to the easiest I could because I was having similar issues and decided I wanted to try something more casual. At one point I had a single fleet that was technically more powerful than the enemy fleet that came into a system I owned. I had more attack ability and my health was almost 4x their attack and my defense was almost double. My fleet was completely wiped out somehow. You might say I should have tried a tactic of having fleets siege multiple systems, I did. I was originally at 3 different systems having this issue before I tried to throw everything at one fleet stopping my blockade. That AI was also doing a massive expansion across the galaxy at the same time. I feel like it must be a bug

        Lets compare this to Civilization. You have city-states and AI and different resources that are randomly spread around the map. you build units and lay siege to city. I believe it is 6 or 5 that has a blockade buff if you completely surround a city making it impossible for the city to repair. In endless space 2 even if my combined forces are 5 times the size and power of the enemy fleet they can enter and break a blockade with firing a single shot. Not only can I not attack the fleet with my full force but they also get the repair buff for being in their own system. in effect I have surrounded the enemy city and all they need to do is move a unit within sight of my blockade and it magically breaks, that's silly. In Civ I don't have to pay a penalty to refuse peace when the enemy offers it. I have a military autocracy with over 90% followers, so it isn't like I am spending that to appease my civilian population who doesn't like war. So when I run out of that I have no choice but to end the war even though I have popular support, the necessary resources, and the desire to continue. There is a punishment for conquest in Civ and this game. As you conquer more places and absorb them into your empire, that's fine but why add this secondary punishment especially to a military pro-war faction? I just want to crush my enemies, see them driven before me and hear them lamentations of their women. Why can't I do that Amplitude? you bleeding heart peace-mongering hippies. I'd rather go play a game like Stellaris or Hearts of Iron over this mishmash of elements that they didn't bother to blend very well.

        Very challenging game, could use a bit more depth but it is a good game. The complexity isn't in the game play as much as its in the understanding the management between development and fleets.

        After 55 hours, facing size limitations or severe punishments for growth... being held back on tech vs other civilizations... or if you do get to the point where you can start holding your areas be stopped completely by a group of pirates or wiped out by a single behemoth.

        Endless Space 2 improves upon the first game, bringing even more freedom into the gameplay and upgrading the artwork to its next breathtaking level. As the gameplay in the Endless series grew more complex, figuring out all of its systems from scratch became a daunting task, which Amplitude cleverly solved by avoiding railroading the game flow. Players can find their own way to play and win using a dozen of their favorite game mechanics, while sidelining others. Beyond making the game feel fresh and limitless, it also adds a roleplaying level to the stories created. It's extremely easy to get engrossed into the game, as immaculate visuals and full blown artwork decorates the UI which would otherwise be merely text and numbers. Along with Endless Legend, Endless Space may be the most beautiful 4X game ever made.

        Ship combat sucks. Just win via number advantage and carpet bomb the civilian population into submission.
        You know, for peace. Cause we're the good guys :)

        I bought this game a while ago but I took an online game break and I was being horny about the big tiddy fish so I pressed on despite the initial overwhelmingness -- it's not bad, haven't played a Civlike in a while. Also I've either gotten better at these kinds of games or this is somehow easier than Civ 5.

        This is the 4x I play if I'm not feeling the complexity of Stellaris. Each empire has very unique play styles. AI is pretty easy. The combat planning and ship customization is pretty cool. The setting and lore feels very well constructed. Stellaris is the better game, but this is easily the second best space 4x I've played.

        Incomprehensible combat seems to break down to a rock-paper-scissors minigame that there is no straightforward way to predict in advance or adapt to elegantly afterwards like in other civ sims and tactics games. If the combat is not the point of the game, why make it so arcane? If it IS the point of the game, why make it so wonky and awkward? I deeply regret this purchase.

        I love this game, it's really clever, and I've played a lot of it. But this review is to remind me of why I hate it: pressing the 'attack' button, and discovering that I'm not attacking pirates, I'm attacking an empire that I'm neutral towards. And then being unable to undo that.

        It's a bit different from other 4X games, but similar to other Endless games, good fun. It's nice that each faction has it's own spin on gameplay from small tweaks to completely different playstyles.

        This is a great game plagues by problems with it launching at random times. Not even with mods on, just out of the blue, one day you can play happily and then you can't even launch a vanilla game. It really is a shame it is THAT unstable.

        I gave that game a try, multiple times, and every time I ended up uninstalling the game after wasting 3 to 4 hours doing... barely anything.

        For a 4X, every X feel undercooked and shallow.
        The exploration is uninteresting. Every system is generic, every planets feel the same.
        The management is painfully passive and shallow, like a very streamlined version of your average CiV.
        Combat is where the game take a nose dive. It's basically autoresolved only and feel very underwhelming despite the very try hard cinematic style they try to give it.

        After spend 4 hours of pushing next turn with very little progress I end up being bored to tears and drop the game entirely.
