At the time of writing, Star Citizen has raised $801,025,246. This doesn't just come through donations but also access to the ꦯAlpha, as you have to put down at least $45 to start playing. After that, you can make more in-game purchases, which also raises this figure.

However, with CitizenCon being reworked, it does seem that the developer is eager not to miss another release window. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Squadron 42, a single-player game set in the Star Citizen🌠 universe, is set to launch in 2026, and this is cited as the reason why꧋ CitizenCon will be a digital event this year.

"The team is hard at work on our upcoming major milestones, and energy is high as we push forward," reads a on the Star Citizen website. "Squadron 42 is progressing well as we work toward next year’s release, and across Star Citizen our focus꧋ remains on delivering meaningful, measurable improvements and fresh content with every patch.

"While there won’t be a traditional in-person CitizenCon in 2025, we’re thrilled to introduce CitizenCon Direct - a special digital showcaseꦍ that brings the exci🐈tement straight to you. This year’s format helps us keep the momentum going while still giving the community something truly special to look forward to."
