Welcome to October’s Jump Point!
While it’s been a busy few weeks in each of our studios, Manchester in particular has been a hotbed of activity in the run-up to last weekend’s CitizenCon. We’ve had visitors from all of our locations in preparation for the big event, and it’s been amazing to see so much enthusiasm for the work being done by each other’s departments.
CitizenCon itself is a blur for most of the devs and staff working, but it’s clear that everyone watching shared the excitement backstage. We hope you enjoyed the reveals and behind-the-scenes dives into everything coming up over the next few major releases.
We’re looking into a few of these this issue, starting with the return of one of the ‘verse’s oldest points-of-interest, Levski! However, it’s not like some of you will remember—it’s had a huge overhaul in every way to make it a major destination when the jump points open to Nyx.
Then, the Narrative team gives us a fascinating look at a key player in Levski’s history, the People’s Alliance, including how they turned the decaying mining base into a home for anyone.
After our trip to Nyx, we’re peeking into the next system on the list, Castra, before detailing the development of the all-new MISC series. The Starlancer MAX launches at IAE in November, but we managed to go behind the scenes before its release to show you how it was put together.
