In the distant future, the X universe faces a period of profound and irrevocable change. While the universe stumbles towards an uncertain future, countless adventures await as new enemies rise in search of power. Enter a young adventurer and his unlikely female ally traveling in an old, battered ship with a glorious past – two people alone against the galaxy, playing a key part in the events to come. The fate of the universe rests in the hands of the player…

If all that sounds terribly exciting but you are still on the fence then we have some good news to share with you. The good folks at Egosoft and Deep Silver are giving free access to the full game for a full weekend on steam, just in time to see all the latest update has in store.

Over the weekend from March 13th to March 15th ALL X games, from the very first X: Beyond The Frontier over the beloved X3 series to the very latest X Rebirth: The Teladi Outpost will be available for an intensive weekend of free test playing through the Steam platform.  Decide for yourself if you prefer the somewhat more hardcore X3 games, like X3: Albion Prelude or the all new X Rebirth universe.
