The Discovery Development team is proud to finally announce the release date for our next patch. We know it’s been a long wait, and we’re extremely grateful for both the anticipation and excitement the playerbase has shown, as well as your continued patience.

Discovery Freelancer: Fire and Fortune will release on September 1st. It will bring a large array of additions and changes to the game, including major balance overhauls, such as the long-awaited battlecruiser and gunboat reworks, and a much needed shake-up of the Sirius Sector’s status quo through vibrant new story developments.

That’s not all there is to this announcement, though. We’ll be sharing some details about what to expect from the patch:

    That’s a hell of a nostalgia trip. Freelancer is probably my all time favourite game, and I had literally a decade of fond memories of Disco before I eventually drifted off.

    What’s it looking like these days? The pop count and surviving factions were looking a little sad the last time I checked in a year or two ago.

    How would I go about getting this running on the SteamDeck? Is the .net requirement a dealbreaker?

      I know people have gotten it to run on Steam Decks in the past. Here’s a guide for running it on Linux in general, though I would assume it also applies to the Steam Deck.

      Also, controller support is not a thing in Freelancer, so you have to play with KB&M
