RPS says it's on the way.

I liked the first one, although I understand some people didn't.  One thing for sure - Amplititude will come up with some interesting factions that all play differently.  No way are they going to take a step backwards from Endless Legend.

I enjoyed it, but I felt Amplitude abandoned it too quickly to rush off to Legends, and now a sequel.  Unlike the original, I will be waiting for a sale before touching the sequel.  Burned once....

I speak as one who has destroyed himself a score of times.  I am, Mr. Engle, a veteran corpse. We are all corpses here! This rendezvous is one of the musical graveyards of the town. Caters to zombies hopping around with dead hearts and price tags for souls." - Angels Over Broadway

Uh, really?  They supported it for ages, and released quite a few (free) DLC and an expansion pack.

i understood it was one of the things they were famous for, customer service and finsihing the game that is

ive never felt it was abandoned, they put their heart and soul into it

Like it or hate it, both Endless space and Endless legends were very polished and did a lot of things "differently". I love endless legends and it's my go-to fantasy strategy game

Endless Space was supported well and received extras after release.  Felt like a pretty complete game to me.

It was Endless Legend that was a bit thin on content and could've used more, IMO.  It's a good one, but I think it could've been a lot better with more stuff in it.

I think they've announced another expansion will be forthcoming.

I really liked the style of ES, but I totally sucked at it. I'm usually pretty good at 4x games, but I just couldn't compete with the AI on this one. It kept me from sticking with e game for too long.

Some things i loved and some things i hated. Also, as Jarhead said, the AI always seem to be far ahead. Anyway...i like the idea of a sequel and will really consider it.

I was quite disappointed by the first one. It felt a bit dull... but if they take note on some other takes on space 4x and make it more engaging over the life of th game, I m defnitely in

I hope it is not Endless Spam 2....... because the ship spam in the later part of the game sunk it for me.

Got an e-mail for early access ES2 the other day.  I'm probably out since I still haven't played much Stellaris or Polaris Sector and MOO4 will be released soon.  Hopefully, its good though, I did like the first one.

I played it during one of Steam's free weekends and, while it was vaguely enjoyable, I didn't really feel there was anything there to differentiate it from any of the Galactic Civilization titles or some of the other Space 4x titles that have been in circulation for a while now.

I very much appreciated Endless Legend and consider that a great purchase.  They made a number of really excellent tweaks to the standard 4x approach to provide some solid innovation there.
