In late 2009, Egosoft announced that Terran Conflict completed the story started in X: Beyond the Frontier, taken by some to mean the end of the franchise. In 2003, Egosoft staff were working on a later version-codenamed X2OL-which Egosoft chief executive officer Bernd Lehahn described as their "long-term goal." There is still no official information on the Online Universe, though there has been speculation that X2 and X3's 2007 uplink feature may be a positive spin-off of the project.

Egosoft has since released a number of games, yet has given little indication of the progress of this project. In 2000, Egosoft planned a multiplayer online game called Online Universe or X Online.
