This Week in Star Citizen
08/18/2025 - 6:45 PM
Happy Monday, everyone!
Alpha 4.3.0: Dark Territory has landed on the live servers! Dive into new missions, uncover the twisted secrets Associated Sciences & Development tried to bury, and brave the the dangers lurking underground. The question is… are you afraid of the dark? Find the full details of Alpha 4.3.0 in the Patch Notes here.
Thought surviving the shadows was intense? Ship Showdown Phase 2 has commenced, and the head-to-head battles are about to erupt! The Top 16 are duking it out, and your votes will decide who survives the gauntlet. Daily drivers face off against legendary heavy-hitters, fan-favorites clash with underdog contenders, and every matchup is a battle for glory. The first-round victors, the Elite Eight, will be made available to all in a special Free Fly. Don't forget: the Final Four will receive exclusive manufacturer-themed in-game swag, and the ultimate winner will also claim a top dog prize. So, rally your orgs, lead your campaigns, and cast your votes every day to ensure your chosen champion emerges from the arena.
It's also that time of year again: our annual pilgrimage to Cologne, Germany! Gamescom is almost here, and we’ve got TWO Bar Citizen events lined up. Come join your fellow Star Citizens and the CIG team at:
Friday, August 22, 2025, from 6:00 PM @ BON - Brauhaus ohne Namen
Saturday, August 23, 2025, from 4:00 PM @ Brauwelt Köln
And yes, we'll be bringing goodies! If you're interested in attending, check out the Gamescom Bar Citizen post for all the details. Please note that, as the venues have limited capacity, entrance will be on a first-come, first-served basis.
Now, let's see what's going on this week
Monday marks the start of Ship Showdown Phase 2, and daily voting kicks off today! Your creative submissions blew us away during Phase 1, and thanks to you, the Top 16 contenders have been chosen. Now, it’s up to your votes to see who survives their brackets!
This Thursday on Star Citizen Live: a Ship Showdown Q&A with John Crewe, Vehicle Director, and Ben Curtis, Vehicle Art Director. Submit your ship-specific questions here for a chance to see them answered live on Twitch at 15:00 UTC.
On Friday, the weekly RSI Newsletter will zip straight into your inbox for all the news and highlights you won't want to miss.
The 'verse is buzzing with community-hosted events this weekend! If industry, trade, and logistics are your thing, check out the community-oragnized Industry & Trade Expo (ITE) on Saturday, August 23, at 15:00 UTC, showcasing industrial ships, guided tours, and fun activities on Twitch.
Later that day, don't miss the Gravity Rush Finals at 19:00 UTC, where elite pilots race at breakneck speed across tricky terrains in a heart-pounding showdown, streamed live on ATMO esports' channel for everyone to catch every thrilling moment!
Fly low, and fly fast!

Diese Woche in Star Citizen
18.08.2025 - 18:45 UHR
Einen schönen Montag euch allen!
Alpha 4.3.0: Dark Territory ist auf den Live-Servern gelandet! Tauche in neue Missionen ein, decke die verdrehten Geheimnisse auf, die Associated Sciences & Development zu begraben versuchte, und trotze den Gefahren, die im Untergrund lauern. Die Frage ist nur... hast du Angst vor der Dunkelheit? Alle Details zur Alpha 4.3.0 findest du hier in den Patch Notes.
Du dachtest, in den Schatten zu überleben war anstrengend? Phase 2 des Schiffsshowdowns hat begonnen, und die Kopf-an-Kopf-Schlachten stehen kurz vor dem Ausbruch! Die Top 16 treten gegeneinander an, und deine Stimme wird entscheiden, wer den Spießrutenlauf überlebt. Tägliche Fahrerinnen und Fahrer treten gegen legendäre Schwergewichte an, Fan-Favoriten treffen auf Außenseiter und jedes Match ist ein Kampf um Ruhm und Ehre. Die Sieger der ersten Runde, die Elite Eight, werden in einem speziellen Free Fly für alle zugänglich gemacht. Vergiss nicht: Die Final Four erhalten exklusive, von den Herstellern gestaltete Werbegeschenke im Spiel, und der endgültige Sieger erhält außerdem einen Preis für den besten Hund. Also versammelt eure Orgs, führt eure Kampagnen durch und gebt jeden Tag eure Stimmen ab, um sicherzustellen, dass euer gewählter Champion aus der Arena hervorgeht.
Außerdem ist es wieder so weit: Wir pilgern jedes Jahr nach Köln, Deutschland! Die Gamescom steht vor der Tür, und wir haben ZWEI Bar Citizen-Events geplant. Triff dich mit anderen Star Citizen und dem CIG-Team auf:
Freitag, 22. August 2025, ab 18:00 Uhr @ BON - Brauhaus ohne Namen
Samstag, 23. August 2025, ab 16:00 Uhr in der Brauwelt Köln
Und ja, wir werden Leckereien mitbringen! Wenn du Interesse hast, dabei zu sein, findest du alle Details im Gamescom Bar Citizen Post. Bitte beachte, dass die Kapazität der Veranstaltungsorte begrenzt ist und der Einlass in der Reihenfolge der Anmeldungen erfolgt.
Schauen wir mal, was diese Woche so los ist
Am Montag beginnt Phase 2 des Ship Showdowns, und die tägliche Abstimmung startet heute! Eure kreativen Einsendungen haben uns in Phase 1 umgehauen, und dank euch wurden die 16 besten Kandidaten ausgewählt. Jetzt hängt es von euren Stimmen ab, wer die Klammern überlebt!
Diesen Donnerstag auf Star Citizen Live: eine Schiffs-Showdown-Frage mit John Crewe, Vehicle Director, und Ben Curtis, Vehicle Art Director. Reiche deine schiffsspezifischen Fragen hier ein und erhalte die Chance, sie live auf Twitch um 15:00 UTC beantwortet zu bekommen.
Am Freitag kommt der wöchentliche RSI-Newsletter direkt in deinen Posteingang mit allen Neuigkeiten und Highlights, die du nicht verpassen willst.
Flieg tief und flieg schnell!
