This Week in Star Citizen 04/2023

Happy Monday, everyone!

Or shall we say, Moon Day? Yes, we’re mad about moons this week as we celebrate the final days of Red Festival 2953! For those who haven’t yet, you can still claim your collectible crowers to adorn your cockpits. Also, if you’re feeling confident that your envelope-collecting exploits will eclipse everyone else’s, you can show them off in the currently ongoing Moons of Fortune contest, and maybe even snag a cool prize!

Racing enthusiasts that are itching to push the pedal to the metal can look forward to two upcoming community-organized events, the Crux Cup and 2953 System 7. Registrations are still open, so don’t forget to head on over to their official sites to sign up and show us your driving skills.

For those in Florida, USA, this weekend, swing by the Tampa BBQ Citizen Expo Party in Clearwater for two days of Star Citizen goodness, starting on Friday, February 3. We hear it’s going to be a smashing good time! If you’re organizing an event or are simply looking for a get-together near you, check out the community-run Bar Citizen site.

In Alpha 3.18 news, as mentioned in last week’s Star Citizen Live: All About Alpha 3.18, the dev team is making some tweaks in preparation for opening up further testing waves in the PTU, so keep your eyes peeled.

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

This Tuesday, the Narrative team brings us the latest monthly Galactapedia update.

Wednesday will see the publish of January’s PU Monthly Report Comm-Link, and the Squadron 42 report sent out via email. Stay in the loop with the latest development information by subscribing to the Squadron 42 newsletter.

Thursday’s episode of Inside Star Citizen is All About Arena Commander. Meet the newly formed Arena Commander Feature team as they take you through some of the first exciting changes coming online later this year.

On Friday, Star Citizen Live will have members of the Mission Feature team discussing their work on Alpha 3.18 and beyond. Catch it on twitch.tv/starcitizen at 16:00 UTC / 8:00 am Pacific. You’ll also receive our weekly RSI Newsletter delivered to your inbox.

Have a fantastic week, and see you in the ‘verse!
