With a focus on militaristic ships, with many available to fly for free during the period, Cloud Imperium Games has confirmed that the in-universe Invictus Launch Week 2952 will be held in Star Citizen from 20 May 2022 until 31 May 2022. With new releases on offer, many ships from previous years, the ability to tour an in-service Javelin Destroyer and experience the event among the clouds of a new event space in Crusader – may be worthwhile diving back into the verse over this period.
Invictus Launch Week’s free (rental) ship offer will be spread out over six events spread over the 12 day period. This includes Drake Interplanetary who were again not invited due to the lore surrounding their brand targeting less than savoury sorts, but will be hosting their DefenseCon event on 28-29 May 2022. A full schedule is events is available below:
During Invictus Launch Week, Star Citizen will host a Free Flight Week, allowing any interested parties to freely download the game’s alpha client and take part. Newcomers interested in taking part can register HERE. For those who have already pledged towards the Verse’s development, perhaps there may be newly unveiled concept or flyable ships you may wish to add to your line-up.
In development by Cloud Imperium Games and their studios across North America and Europe, Star Citizen is being helmed by Wing Commander (1990s) creator Chris Roberts. The game has currently been in a long-term alpha phase with no confirmed release date. Despite this, the studio has raised more than $435 million USD through on-going crowdfunding. Please keep in mind should you decide to purchase towards Star Citizen, that this is an incomplete project and that you are pledging towards an extended crowdfunding campaign with no 100% guarantee of a finished product.
