Amplitude’s Community Locks Down “E.N.F.E.R.”, Berserk A.I., Mastermind of the Release ARG
Paris, France – SEGA Europe Ltd. and Amplitude Studios have officially released its genre-defining sci-fi grand strategy game, Endless Space 2. After a period of fine-tuning in Early Access, Endless Space 2 has hit “full launch” status and is ready for players to jump in and take on the challenge of conquering the universe as one of many distinct spacefaring civilizations. Capture and colonize worlds, collect resources, build massive fleets of warships or exploration vessels, and expand your empire! Endless Space 2 is available now on Steam for Windows and Mac OS for $39.99 USD.
The game’s launch was recently jeopardized as the studio had been hijacked by an A.I. gone rogue that had taken over all of Amplitude’s tools and communications channels. After a month of research and discussion with the A.I. ‘E.N.F.E.R.’, the community managed to get it into quarantine, and during a special stream last night, the devs were able to lock down the A.I. for good, which resulted in Endless Space®2 launching a day earlier than expected.
“Crafting Endless Space 2 has been a long and rewarding journey! As always, our community has been an outstanding and creative partner in the game’s development, and it has been such an honor to be able to implement an entire civilization into the game that was designed by them,” says Romain de Waubert de Genlis, Creative Director of Amplitude Studios. “We look forward to everyone getting a chance to play the game now, and seeing the different places the Endless Universe will take you.”
