Elite Dangerous was originally launched in 2014 and was one of the very first fully immersive and massive Virtual Reality compatible space-based simulator. On October 27, 2020, it released its biggest DLC for all the players who already own the base version of the game. On top of it, it is completely free.
Frontier Developments who are the creators of Elite Dangerous had announced last month about making Elite Dangerous: Horizons as freely available to the players. Previously this DLC was a separate expansion that is not added to the base game.
Before this Elite dangerous update, the cost of Horizons was $30. This was aside from the $30 price of the base game. This latest free update will include all of the supported platforms, including PC (SteamVR, Oculus PC), Xbox and PlayStation 4.

For all the players who have already purchased Horizons before it became a freely available DLC (there are more than a million players who have paid for this DLC), Frontier game company is making sure that these players do not feel frustrated after the game became free. As a token of appreciation and for saying thanks to these players, the developers are rewarding them with an exclusive azure ship paint colour which will be compatible with all the ships that are currently in the game.
This beautiful cosmetic reward is going to be the only Horizons feature that will stay exclusive to the players who had owned this expansion before it was incorporated into the game. So the ones who didn't purchase this add-on DLC before October 26 will not be able to get their hands on this exclusive cosmetic.
