So, Elite Dangerous is a space sim that replicates a 1:1 scale of the galaxy that allows all players to inhabit, work and fly around in. Or so I've heard. This is a good way to dabble in the game before forking over the hard-earned cash for the full experience.
Main points about the Area Edition of Elite Dangerous:
- It's a standalone Multiplayer-only mode, as it's a Player vs. Player dogfight mode.
- Requires an internet connection to play.
- Requires an Xbox Gold subscription to play (but not to purchase).
