This Week in Star Citizen 03/2025

Hello everyone, xē’suelen nyahyan

Following up on last week’s news, we’re happy to share that Alpha 4.0.1 has officially landed on the PTU! You can explore all the details in the full patch notes here.

Alpha 4.0.1 brings a substantial list of fixes and improvements, many of which are directly thanks to your feedback—from adjustments like the cockpit lights in the Mirai Guardian and new personal storage in select ships to the Crusader Ares Ion’s weapons rebalance. There’s more to do, and we’ve been closely monitoring your continued feedback, so keep it coming!

With this release, you’ll soon be able to continue your adventures in Pyro with Save Stanton: Chapter 2 on the horizon. Keep an eye on Spectrum for more information.

We’d also like to give a massive shoutout to everyone who took part in the Beauty of Pyro screenshot contest and The Gift That Keeps on Giving video contest. Your creativity and passion are nothing short of incredible, and our team had a blast reviewing all of the submissions! While these two contests have now concluded, make sure to check out the winning entries in their dedicated threads.

Now, let’s see what’s going on this week:

This Tuesday, discover the rich lore and tactical brilliance of a legendary stealth bomber in our latest community highlight, Whitley’s Guide to the Aegis Eclipse!

Friday will see the weekly RSI Newsletter directly delivered to your inbox. Our weekly shows are on a hiatus and will return soon.

One moon, three outposts, and 510 kilometers of raging racing: the Daymar Rally is returning on Saturday, 16:00 UTC! If you’re not participating in the biggest race in the ‘verse, watch it Live on Twitch & Discord via ATMO Esports!
