A player in the galaxy-spanning space combat game Elite: Dangerous has revealed a new, intriguing secret: proof of alien life. According to a post on Reddit, Xbox user DP Sayre discovered and recorded the first alien contact while playing the game on Xbox One.
Developer Frontier Games seemed to confirm the encounter with a tweet sharing an image of the alien craft with the text, "A report just coming through that a CMDR has experienced something... strange."
We'll keep on eye on this developing story and will provide more details on the aliens (called Thargoids in Elite Dangerous) as they're revealed.
