All of these titles are also provided without DRM. A comprehensive contents and features list can be found below.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to all of the X-series titles, the X Superbox also contains an all-new and exclusive X Encyclopedia, written by Helge Kautz, the author of Farnham\u2019s Legend and other X Universe books.
