Star Citizen has released its latest roadmap roundup post detailing new features in alpha 4.2.1 and alpha 4.3, which include new hairstyles, missions, a new tool for tracking player progression, a lightning sniper rifle, new armors, and PvE cooperative zones for investigation and puzzle-solving.
The progress report for June focuses on AI and mission development for the Storm Breaker activity in alpha 4.2, development of different vehicles, new missions, faction reputation missions, and the upcoming major story arc.
The Foundation Festival event has started, aiming to bring new and veteran players together with a free-fly event featuring eight ships for new players. The event has received mixed reactions due to the lack of new rewards for backers and concerns about the referral program and cheating issues.
Star Citizen, originally Kickstarted in 2012, remains in an incomplete alpha state despite raising over $800M in crowdfunding. The game has faced delays, with the single-player title Squadron 42 also experiencing repeated delays.
