AD2460 Revision

For many gamers, the AD2460 will look like something entirely different. Rather than playing on a console or powerful PC, this is a 4x space empire game designed to be played in the web browser.

However, the internet is teeming with browser-based games, and there are plenty of standalone 4x apps and mainstream games. So, is this free-to-play game worth checking out or should you take your space empire somewhere else?

A rich legacy

Let’s be honest: space expansion games on a web browser can be a pretty tough sell. Fortunately, this game is made by one of the experts in this field.

AD2460 is brought to life by the same people who created Planetarion. This was a similar type of Space Empire web browser game released way back in 2000.

The good news is that the developers have clearly learned a lot of lessons. This new game has a smoother interface, leaner tech trees, and greater community involvement.

At the end of the day, however, the basic gameplay is very similar. And that core gameplay may not be everyone’s cup of tea!
