X4: Foundations is a deep, open-ended space simulation and empire-builder. Pilot anything from agile fighters to massive freighters in first person, dock and walk on stations, and move seamlessly between ship, space, and station interiors. Build a trading empire with a living, player-influenced economy, design modular stations, command large fleets, and shape the galaxy through diplomacy, piracy, or war. An advanced AI, dynamic faction conflicts, and a robust sandbox let you forge your own path from lone explorer to industrial magnate to military power.
