Winter 2016 event breaking news text:
We breathed life into the first DarkOrbit server on the 11th December 2006. Since then our marvelous sci-fi game has gone through several changes, with the promise of more awesome things to come.
So let’s kick-off with something special. By popular demand we’re opening the first Cross-Server Zone, Refractions, so you can team up with pilots from different servers. The PvP battles are going to be epic, and there’s a set of quests relating to the area too!

Cross-server breaking news text:
Humanities need to master the universe is legendary. Breaking new barriers and achieving new goals.
The results can sometimes be unexpected!
Attempting to discover the secrets of an ancient alien artifact, scientists triggered a new region of space. A refraction of the universe itself, where all possibilities can happen and histories secrets will start to be revealed.
Now you can enter Refractions, the first permanent Cross-Server Zone for DarkOrbit. Allowing players from all servers to meet in epic PVP battles. Allowing you to fight for your faction’s best interests or your own and with a new set of quests dedicated to this new map.
