Frontier Developments' official roadmap for Elite Dangerous has clarified that the Operations update, originally planned for April, has been postponed to June 2026. This update will introduce two new vessels, including the confirmed Nomad, while the identity of the second vessel remains undisclosed. The MK2 hangar, which is required to house these new ships, is currently available on only three existing ships, raising questions about how the second vessel will integrate into the fleet. Commanders should prepare for new gameplay features and ship options arriving this summer, adjusting their strategies accordingly.
- Operations update delayed from April to June 2026.
- Two new vessels expected: Nomad confirmed, second vessel unknown.
