With all the hype surrounding space games after SC bombshell dropped, Egosoft FINALLY put out some news, so at least we know they're still alive and doing well. Zero new info/screenshots/vids though, so we still have no idea about the actual gameplay or interface, besides written word and a couple of old concept art.

This will essentially be the first in a new era of space games, hopefully only months from release. People are now interested, so X:Rebirth should sell well, if their PR plays it right.
