Elite: Dangerous successfully raised £ 1,250,000. The release of the game is scheduled for March 2014

The campaign to raise funds for a new version of the classic game of the 80s has achieved the stated goal. Less than two days left until the end of the campaign. If you manage to collect 1 400 000, three months after the release for Windows, the version for Mac OS will be released. Another 100,000 pounds more - the game will be more than ten types of ships. The development is a company Frontier Developments, owned by David Braben - one of the two authors of the original "Elite".



As in the classic "Elite", the game will have an open story and procedural generation of content, which means the game world will be immeasurably huge and interesting. In Elite: Dangerous will be Newtonian physics, multiplayer and single user mode, the ability to sit on the planets, thousands of items for trading goods and much more. During the campaign, Bében and colleagues did not sit idly - if at the very beginning the project page on Kickstarter looked quite laconic and dry, now there are tons of information, sketches, demo videos, video diaries of developers and links about the future game. Here are just some of them:
