Endless Legend (PC): Developed by Amplitude studios, Endless Legend is a turn-based 4X fantasy strategy game that takes place on the land of Auriga, a once-beautiful planet destroyed in a massive cataclysm.

StarDrive 2 (PC, Mac, Linux): In Zero Sum Games’ sequel to the popular original PC 4x real-time strategy title StarDrive (2013), players can build a space empire and command huge fleets turn-by-turn in an immersive, living galaxy filled with nine alien races, pirate factions, galactic lore and mystery.
Fans of the 4X genre can research hundreds of technologies, including technologies unique to their race, and build ships in the custom ship design mode before taking them into real-time battles packed with stunning visuals and sound effects.
Players can exploit planets, navigate asteroid belts, and overcome deep space dangers while handling interspecies relations to gain the upper hand. They will conduct diplomacy and espionage, make alien friends that will deliver thriving trade treaties – or enemies that will seek to exterminate them at all costs.
