The Frigate Is Coming…

Take a Look At Our This Week In Star Citizen Summary:

The Red Festival 2954 (Lunar New Year 2024) is still ongoing until February 26! As is tradition throughout the UEE, red envelopes have been hidden across Stanton, and we’re offering a variety of red and gold ship paints to tempt good fortune in the year ahead. The Referral Bonus is also a great way for your friends and yourself to earn rewards: When you refer a friend, you can receive a Drake Dragonfly, Red Alert Armor set with undersuit and backpack, plus a shotgun for free!

Our teams are working hard on Star Citizen Alpha 3.22.1, hammering down features, squashing bugs, and preparing the great events ahead of us! Read the recent EPTU Patch Notes.

Related to this, we have made a change to how the Evocati Patch Notes are shared with the members of the community. We will begin to release the Evocati Patch Notes publicly, allowing everyone to read and discuss their content. Read our announcement for the details.

And more Lore for everyone: Learn more about the Anvil Valkyrie and its development.

What’s going on this week:

This Wednesday, enjoy a new update of our Roadmap, with plenty of details for you all.

Thursday, we’re posting a new episode of our weekly Inside Star Citizen with a look at three more features coming to Alpha 3.23 in Master Modes, Precision Targeting, and Gimbal Weapon changes… and more!

Keep your eyes peeled, the Frigate is coming… this is almost certainly referring to the 3.22.1 Idris Boarding Playtests that CIG have been doing… and Alpha 3.22.1 is in open PTU now with a load of extra content including Gravlev racing, there’s the Overdrive Initiate XenoThreat Missions, which are loads of Datahiests, bounty hunts, SPK assaults, BIG Master Mode Updates for AC and a ton more. I am expecting it to go live later this week… personally and hopefully something interesting and Idrisy will be part of it.

This Friday, our Star Citizen Live will be a 2-for-1. In the first half, we’ll sit with the developers creating the upcoming Distribution Centers as they answer your questions live, and in the second half, we’ll Meet the Devs with Forrest Stephan, Principal Technical Artist. You can now submit your questions for Distribution Centers and catch the show LIVE at 8am PST / 4pm UTC. The weekly RSI Newsletter will also be delivered right to your inboxes.
