Rockfish Games' Everspace was a compelling blend of addictive roguelike gameplay with accessible and fast-paced space combat, and its successor Everspace 2 has successfully carried over much of what made the first game such a delight despite pivoting to an entirely different genre. Dropping the more linear roguelike progression, Everspace 2 has moved to a sprawling open world that now mechanically has more in common with action RPGs like Diablo than it does with mission-based indie roguelike hits like FTL: Faster Than Light.
