Rockfish finally announced a console release date for Everspace 2, the studio's visually-splendid space shooter. Since coming out of Steam Early Access in April (and getting cancelled for PS4 and Xbox One), all eyes have been on the PS5, and Xbox Series X/S versions.

For one, Everspace 2 is launching into Game Pass (both Xbox and PC) on day one, making it an essential download for anyone even curious about space shooter RPGs. The game arrives August 15 on both console families, as well as Game Pass - running at 60fps.

The console version is priced $50 / £50 / €50, and it's available to pre-oder on PlayStation. If you're a PlayStation Plus member, you get a decent 20% off discount on those prices. You'll also be happy to know that the game includes support for the DualSense's haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and the speaker.
