2016-10-25 - 1.7 & 2.2 "The Guardians"

Elite Dangerous: The Guardians 2.2 update

Hi guys,

The time has finally arrived! Today sees both the Elite Dangerous Horizons (2.2) update and the Elite Dangerous (1.7) update making its way to the live game.

For those of you who haven't experienced a big milestone day, these updates can take several hours to install and make live.

The servers will be down from 10am BST (15 minutes) and will be down for an extended period of time (up to 8+ hours) Xbox One players will see that the download will be available from 11am to pre-install but the game won’t be playable until the servers are back up. The size of that download is 9.7gb which is a file increase of 1.8gb

We'll keep you updated with progress in this thread should there be any extra information. In the meantime we have a couple of exciting things going on today to keep you entertained while you wait for the updates to be added.

Join David Braben on a Reddit AMA from 10:00 - 12:00 BST. Followed by Ed Lewis and a series of developers from 1pm BST on our official YouTube channel.

The development team have been working incredibly hard over the recent months developing the game and working with our fantastic beta community to test, adjust and test again the upcoming version of the game so please give the beta community and the developers lots of thanks and support.
