14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
No United States chart position — it charts only in the markets below.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 10.14/day in the week to Aug 26 → 18/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Poland over the last 30 days: the 21 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 12 places towards #1, and the 2,501 moves with no price cut behind them went 1 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

I'm an avid space simmer, 2k hours in Kerbal Space, 1,200 hours in X4 Foundations, 1,100 hours in Space Engineers, 800 hrs in NMS, so I'm used to my fair share of "jank''. But ED takes the cake! Not one, but TWO game breaking bugs in the character creator screen and am left to trouble shoot on my own. Are the other games I listed off, "buggy''?. You bet! but at least they LAUNCH and don't crash under the weight of their own menus, lol no thanks. Can't remember how much I spent on this game, can't return, as it sat in my library for years. COOL!! Hard pass, I'll play a game that works.
Jogo bom pra se estressar e dedicar sua vida pra isso

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 13: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Probably the worst and hardest learning curve in gaming, but a masterpiece if you can stick with it.
Every time I pick up this game I get into it for a full week or two to complete a bunch of missions I should never have picked in the first place. 10/10
I've spent so much time on this game jumping from Ceos to Sothis....o7
amazing!! a classic that became a dream of a game!
Surprise surprise the latest update made the game grievously tedious. I intsalled the game two days ago (as of this review) and almost everything is more tedious. Pretty easy uninstall. If you've never played the game then by all means play the ♥♥♥♥ out of it. If you are a returning player like me and dont want to relearn the game, just leave it. Not worth the headache. Thanks Frontier, you ♥♥♥♥♥.
Horrible HORRIBLE customer service. Purchased game on Steam. (TYVM!) MUST have Frontier account to play. Sign up for Frontier account. MUST have 25 digit activation code (from Steam?) Tried my Invoice number...NOPE! Contacted Frontier...zero response. Search their website...tells me to go to an "account" page and take actions...STILL have not found an "account" page...ZERO response from Frontier. What a SCAM! Downloaded 50G for NOTHING. (Steam lists me as having played the game for 19 minutes....WRONG!)
It's slowly becoming more and more like the game we all wanted. you can trade, you can influence, you can build and you can fight.. you choose, your story... the universe .. is yours.
for those who like space sims, its amazing the only downside is that we dont get lush planets with cities if they make this in the future its a 10/10 space sim game
