Kalypso Media has released new gameplay trailers for the Windows PC-exclusive Legends of Pegasus. The 4X space simulation (4X stands for eXlore, eXpand, eXploit and eXterminate) will put players in control of the last surviving humans in 2231, as they explore space in a quest to expand their galactic empire. Players will conquer and explore an incredibly detailed 3D universe as they use economic, diplomatic and scientific means to expand their empires. Through a deep technology tree, players will unlock new technologies to customize their ships and prepare their fleets for the next alien encounter… be it hostile or friendly.
Talking about liens, learn more about the race of the X’or in the newest Legends of Pegasus trailer.

Now I’m dying to know who that mysterious & ancient third race in the game is! 😀
Legends of Pegasus takes you to an epic journey into space and mixes real-time and turn-based strategy. Players will expand their civilization in the galaxy by colonizing new planets, building factories, laboratories and shipyards, researching new technologies and designing new spacecrafts to keep on exploring new galaxies. Battles are played real-time and decided not only by your tactical skills, but also by your strategic decisions and the design and equipment of your ships.
Legends of Pegasus offers a massive single player campaign (which we’re promised takes over 40 hours to complete!), during which the player will discover three very different races. Multiplayer features Internet or LAN gameplay, against Human or AI opponents. If you like designing your own game yourself, numerous modding options will certainly make you all the more happy. The spectacular 3D graphics don’t just bring life to marvelous planets, but also to the stunning spaceships you can freely design thanks to an intuitive building system.
