## About This Content
X4: Cradle of Humanity, the second big expansion for X4: Foundations, brings
the X series back to Earth. While significantly increasing the size of the
game’s universe with new sectors, the expansion also welcomes two Terran
factions to X4: Foundations, along with their economy, ships, weapons and
stations. New game-starts introduce the identity and political stance of the
Terran factions, as well as give an alternative perspective on existing story
developments in X4: Foundations.

X4: Cradle of Humanity also sheds a light on what has happened to Earth in the
decades since the jump-gate shutdown. Furthermore, a certain pirate faction
that is well known to fans of the series is making a dramatic comeback.

X4: Cradle of Humanity is accompanied by the biggest free update to X4:
Foundations yet. Update 4.0 further enhances X4: Foundations in a number of
ways, including major new gameplay features (e.g. a new terraforming feature)
and wide-ranging visual improvements (e.g. volumetric fog).

Main Features:
* Big expansion of the X4: Foundations universe with new sectors
* Return of Terran factions with economy, ships, weapons and stations
* Thrilling new story missions and adventures to experience
* New game-starts that allow new perspectives on the X4: Foundations story
* Introducing a new terraforming gameplay feature, evolving the endgame
* Visual improvements such as volumetric fog, making the X universe look better than ever
