Everspace: Encounters Critic Reviews

Simply put, if you have Everspace and want to experience the game in a new way then the Everspace Encounters DLC is well worth the asking price of £6.99. If you have not picked up Everspace yet then make sure you pick up the DLC at the same time. Even after playing the core game I have sunk a load more hours into the DLC thanks to the new challenges. Rockfish has made an already great space shooter even better with some great new missions, along with NPCs that add some real flavour to the experience. This is a very solid piece of DLC.

A stunningly beautiful game that is significantly enhanced in content and replayability by the Encounters DLC. If you enjoy trekking through Everspace’s varied space environments in search of loot and adventure then the Encounters DLC is a must-buy.

For a little money a very decent portion of fun in the form of a ship, weapons and story characters that can leave an impression. On the other hand, it's still the same thing over and over and sometimes you will not even get to the new content.

DLC offers a wide spectrum of additions (e.g. new weapons) but unfortunately fails to eliminate flaws of the original game and I slumped into boredom because of its repetitiveness.
