The Great Return is a 13 week journey of six stages that will take us from Beagle Point down a broadly parallel path to the west of the route taken by the outbound Distant Worlds 2 fleet. It features a rest point at the now complete Explorer’s Anchorage, and ends at the Colonia Connection Highway (CCH) allowing CMDRs to then choose their onward route to either Colonia or the Bubble.

Meetups will be every two weeks (e.g: at Waypoints, #3, #5, #7, #9, #11 and #14) but impromptu get-togethers are always encouraged.

The official launch will be May 19th 3005 at 19:00 UTC from from the Distant Worlds basecamp on Beagle Point body 2 A. However, CMDRs may set off at any time and are welcome to follow the route on a schedule to suit their personal priorities.

The Great Return will be undertaken in Allcrowsareblack's Private Group on PS4. All existing PSN facilities will be maintained.

CMDRs on other platforms are of course welcome to follow the route and are advised to use the FeetComm or Mobius Private Groups.
