The fourth free add-on to Amplitude Studios' 4X turn-based empire builder Endless Space has just been received. It's called Virtual Awakening and includes new heroes, techs, anomalies and events.

The studio has also rolled out balance adjustments and some AI tweaks. Right now Endless Space is enjoying a 50% off sale via Steam that lasts until March 18th. A changelog has posted.

Virtual Awakening bumps Endless Space to version 1.0.65 according to the list of changes catalogued by Amplitude. They've added a new intro for the latest free add-on.

“Driven by their need to terraform and cultivate, it was only a matter of time before the Automatons turned their eyes to the least hospitable planets: Gas giants. A probe ship departed for an uncolonized system, hoping to test technology that could transform these jovian worlds into something livable," blurbs the studio.

“It was a nice plan, but luck and reality had other ideas. The gas giant had a derelict platform orbiting it that had been of the Virtual Endless war effort — and the Virtuals had left a guard behind. Worse yet, the system was rich in minerals from its asteroid belts, so a small but well-equipped group of Pirates was also keeping an eye on it.”

The latest changelog for Endless Space is available here.
