Fleet Carriers Coming To Elite Dangerous In December, Improved Newbie Experience Rolls Out Next Month

Elite Dangerous over the next couple of months. First on the list is the September Update which will bring a new and improved new player experience which will include a fully-voiced in-ship tutorial that will teach rookies the basics of space flight, traveling, scanning, and combat. The update will also replace the current Frontier Points with a new currency called Arx. Players will be able to earn the new currency in-game or buy it with real-world cash.

Next up is the December Update which will finally introduce Fleet Carriers into the game allowing players to carry up to 16 player ships within its holds. Fleet Carriers will be purchasable by both base game and Horizons Commanders but will be limited to one per due to their size. “They’re really big,” says the studio. And, they’ll cost you a large amount of credits.
