Frontier Developments have released a new dev diary for Elite Dangerous‘ upcoming Odyssey expansion.
This massive new expansion releases in early 2021, and allows players to explore planets. The new dev diary discusses how players can customize their experience and forge their own playstyle as they disembark their ship. You can find the new dev diary below.

Frontier Developments have also announced that on October 27th, the Horizons expansion will become free. Players who don’t own Horizons will get it as a free update, and it will be included in all future purchases. Those who bought Horizons previously will get a unique azure paint scheme compatible with all ships in the game as a free gift. The Horizons expansion will be up for purchase until October 26th for anyone who wants to get the new paint scheme before it will be removed from the marketplace.
