Elite is a freeform 3D space trading and combat simulator, originally created for the BBC Micro by David Braben and Ian Bell in 1984, and ported to many other computer and console platforms. Several of its features were influential on later games, including the game's innovative uses of wireframe 3D, procedural generation, and open-ended gameplay.
