Earth & Beyond was a science fiction massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed by Westwood Studios and published by Electronic Arts. The game was released on September 24, 2002 in the United States. EA shutdown E&B on September 22, 2004, ending the paid subscription service that allowed players to play.

Game universe


It is not known what year it is set in exactly, but that it is some time around the 2175 AD. It features three races: the Progen, Jenquai and Terran. The Progen are a genetically altered and advanced race. The Jenquai are philosophers that seek eternal life. The Terrans are the original humans. Each of the three races is descended from the human race on Earth, in essence they are all human. The game's storyline takes place in the Milky Way Galaxy. The Progen, Terran and Jenquai are all uneasy of each other, but still manage to live together in peace. The Terrans are known for their extremely large corporations, such as InfinitiCorp and GetCo. InfinitiCorp is the manufacturer of the intersystem and intersector warp gates. The warp gates were originally created by the mysterious Ancients, an enigmatic and hyper-advanced race who had all but disappeared.

The Universe

Each Universe (server), consists of 12 main solar systems, more were added later in updates. Each system contains multiple sectors. Warp gates are used to travel from sector to sector, and system to system. While a large portion of time is spent in the beginning exploring all these sectors, travel can quickly become tiresome without faster engines.

The Warp Gates

The warp gate of Akeron was discovered when the reactor of a Progen freightor on a trade run near Pluto exploded. The explosion propelled the freightor into a nearby asteroid field, where it collided with an asteroid, revealing the warp gate.
