Frontier Developments has announced that the wait for the Xbox One version of Elite Dangerous is no more as the game is out now.

Elite Dangerous brings gaming’s original open world adventure to Xbox One with all 400 billion stars of the Milky Way re-created at their full galactic proportions, an evolving player-driven narrative and fully connected multiplayer experience.

Starting with only a small starship and a few credits, players do whatever it takes to earn the skill, knowledge, wealth and power to survive in a futuristic cutthroat galaxy and to stand among the ranks of the iconic Elite. In an age of galactic superpowers and interstellar war, every player’s story influences the unique connected gaming experience and evolving narrative. Governments are overthrown, battles are lost and won, and humanity’s frontier is reshaped, all by players’ actions.


Elite Dangerous arrives on Xbox One in full 1080p, with new gamepad-optimized controls, Achievements, full support for Xbox One Parties and Friends Lists, and all-new instant-action PVP in the Close Quarter Combat Championships.

Elite Dangerous for Xbox One launches alongside Elite Dangerous update 1.4: CQC for PC, Mac and Xbox One, featuring new ships, content and the all-new Close Quarter Combat (CQC) PVP mode.
