The
Roberts Space Industries website reflects the continuing flurry of activity
surrounding
Star Citizen, the upcoming space combat game that looks to
return to the glory days of games like Wing Commander and Privateer. The game's
crowdfunding campaign is hurtling along, and has surpassed the $22 million mark,
triggering the new stretch goals of a Facial Capture System and a Public
Transportation System. They add: "In addition to this immersion-enhancing design
upgrade, we’re also going to dedicate some of the additional funding to making
next year’s CitizenCon a bigger event! Thank you for making this all possible.
Keep spreading the word!" Here's the summary of the latest happenings, which
includes the release of a patch for the
game's
hangar module and
the commercial for the
2944 Aurora:
Two pieces of great news: after a long night of hard
work, the promised Hangar patch is available! You can check out the Avenger, the
privateer outfit, the Aurora LN, the fish tank… and a few other surprises. The
second piece of news is that in just four days, we’ve hit $22 million in crowd
funding! Between the hangar patch, the
bomber reveals, the
Aurora LN, CIG Manchester and the start of
The Next Great Starship, this has been a big anniversary week… and the best
is yet to come!
