Lastly, as updates often do, this one squashes a few persnickety bugs and provides a bit of game balancing for difficulty. No worries, we’re not gonna force anyone to solve lots of complex puzzles and tight pursuit missions to progress through the story campaign à la Uncharted or Tomb Raider. Some super-duper loot will require top maneuvering skillz AND brainz to obtain.
That said, we aren’t implementing all these different types of gameplay mechanics for nothing.
Much of these side quests are optional objectives to pursue whenever you’d like to take a break from the main story campaign. We want to provide various gameplay mechanics that you can delve into while progressing through the game in your preferred manner.

The outlaw once again needs rescuing, it seems, and is this time in clutches of the arachnid-like Cave Crawlers.
The central force of these new primary missions and side missions is an old face from the original Everspace: Elek. Though many of those activities will take "place in the second star system," neither the release nor a news post on the game's Steam page mentioned what those activities are. On top of that, Rockfish said in a release that there are "addition side activities" available as well. Union: Contracts/Heartland adds six new missions to Everspace 2: three primary missions and three side missions.
