X3: Reunion (Trademarked as X3: Reunion) is a single-player space trading and combat game developed by Egosoft and published by Deep Silver. It is the third installment in the X universe adventure video game series and the sequel to X2: The Threat (2003), which in turn followed X: Beyond the Frontier (1999). X3: Reunion was released originally for Windows in the EU on October 28, 2005 for and on November 4, 2005 in North America. The game has been later ported to Mac OS X (August 2007) and Linux (December 5, 2008). The X series is often compared to the classic Elite, in that these first-person space adventure games focus on trade and exploration, as well as combat.

The original retail version of X3 was broadly criticized, suggesting Egosoft had released the game before it was ready. Egosoft quickly released a series of patches to fix these problems; while overall the reviewers and players reception improved significantly, some remained critical.

Egosoft have continued to expand and develop this game since release, adding new ships and equipment, a new kind of station as well as new modding tools, and a new series of missions. New material for this game - official and fan made - is frequently released through Egosoft's official website.
