███ ███
███ X3: Albion Prelude is the latest game in the X3 space game series. ███
███ TRADE, FIGHT, BUILD, THINK in a living and breathing universe. A new ███
███ plot and many additions to the open free-form gameplay. ███
███ ███
███ A Bridge Between the Old and New X Universe ███
███ X3: Albion Prelude plays in a time between the old and the new X ███
███ Universe. It shows a universe in flux, and prepares players for things ███
███ to come. The old X Universe is passing; a new X Universe is about to be ███
███ created. ███
███ ███
███ War! ███
███ The X universe is undergoing a period of massive change. What started ███
███ as a conflict of interest between the Earth and the races of the X ███
███ Universe has now escalated into a full scale war. Play a part in a war ███
███ scenario bigger than anything the X Universe has ever seen before! ███
███ ███
███ Corporations Compete for Control of the Future ███
███ With the war as a backdrop, corporations old and new are vying for ███
███ power and are driving the X Universe in a new direction. A ███
███ technological breakthrough will soon allow massive accelerators, ███
███ forming highways in space and allowing the economy to expand on an ███
███ unprecedented scale. Highways, a key feature of X: Rebirth, are not ███
███ yet ready, but you can see them being built and participate in the ███
███ power struggles around the construction of much larger self sustaining ███
███ economies. ███
███ ███
