X²: The Threat is the sequel to X: Beyond the Frontier. In this game, you work to build your character up in a space environment. The game allows you to control much of what happens in the universe as you work to build space stations and fleets of ships across the universe.
Will you choose the path of a trader, a pirate, a miner, a bounty hunter, or a combination of those? Your choices determine how you are treated by the races you encounter in your travels.
Upgrade your ships with various weapon, speed, and defense modifications as well as many other modifications you can purchase throughout the universe. Use the same upgrades to improve your starbases that you build.
Travel through huge sectors of space and trade goods at many outposts and stations to increase your funds, or prey on the helpless ships flying through the galaxy.
Lost? Ask the station you are flying past for directions. They will be happy to assist you in full voiceover.
The uneasy peace in the universe is faltering... how will you fare?
