35 years ago, Elite was first released. I am honoured and touched by the amazing community that has loved and supported the games over so many years.
Thank you to all those that have made this possible, and to those fans of Elite Dangerous; some of whom weren’t even born then!

- "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe, attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die." RIP Rutger Hauer
