Frontier invites you to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Elite

Elite is a space trading and combat computer game, originally written and developed by David Braben and Ian Bell and published by Acornsoft in September, 1984 for the BBC Micro computer.

Join us to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Elite with a series of events, competitions and media. We have brand-new wallpapers, Elite midi music and screenshots in the Anniversary Media section and we’re inviting you to read our fans fond memories of the Elite universe - we’d love to hear your own, whether they are ‘mostly harmless’ or ‘dangerous’...

The latest Elite events and promotions and a special Anniversary video from David Braben can be found in the right-hand column of this website.
