Why you might like it

  • Was intended as a fully modernized sequel to Jumpgate, with a new graphics engine and more accessible controls aimed at bringing space-combat MMOs to a wider audience.
  • Reached a feature-complete state and internal testing by 2009, further along than most cancelled MMOs ever get.
  • Its cancellation is frequently cited by space-MMO fans as one of the more painful “what could have been” losses in the genre's history.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • Developer NetDevil suffered repeated layoffs, and the Jumpgate Evolution team was eliminated entirely in a February 2011 round of cuts, ending the project for good.
  • No public build, beta, or source code was ever released, so there's no way to experience the game today.
  • Because no build ever leaked or released, all information about the game comes from pre-cancellation previews and interviews rather than direct player experience.
