Description :
The Human Race had advanced to the point where we could travel among the stars, we developed giant
automated machines to help us colonise other worlds, but there was a fault in their programming and they
turned and attacked. Forcing us to lay a trap to protect Earth and exiling the Human race to stay on Earth
once again. 500 Years later Kyle Brennan starts his journey by piloting an experimental ship
equipped with a new piece of technology allowing it to cross vast distances on its own. However it
malfunctions and traps him in a group of sectors inhabited by Aliens, hunted and with no way home, this is his
story of survival... Beyond the Frontier...


Notes

In 1999, EgoSoft's Bernd Lehahn contacted Pritchett just prior to the release of X-Beyond the Frontier. Lehahn stated that TradeWars had been an influence in the development of X-BTF. Pritchett consulted with Lehahn for several months on a proposed persistent X universe. He later joined the X team to develop a new flight model for X5.
