Every two weeks, we accompany the Roadmapupdate with a brief explanatory note to give you insight into the decision-making that led to any changes. This is part of an effort to make our communications more transparent, more specific, and more insightful for all of you who help to make Star Citizen and Squadron 42 possible.
Just a reminder: The 1.0 column showcases features and content planned for inclusion in or before Star Citizen 1.0. This means you may not have to wait for the 1.0 release to experience them. As features/content in the 1.0 column become ready, they will migrate left into a point patch column for release.
Be sure to check back every two weeks for the latest updates.
With that, let’s dive into this week’s Roadmap Roundup!

Ship Showdown 2955
Every year, Ship Showdown challenges the community to champion their favorite vehicle. With more ships, snubs, fighters, and ground-pounders than ever to choose from this year, 2955 is sure to be one for the record books! From massive freighters to agile hoverbikes and everything in-between, you made your voices heard and let us know which contenders should come out on top. We received countless incredible submissions, including screenshots, videos, Lego® creations, original songs, and even 3D-printed models. Thousands of entries were tallied to bring us our top 16, which battled it out in the first round of head-to-head bouts. Now, as we enter the ELITE EIGHT, all of our remaining contenders are now available to FLY FOR FREE! The final battle starts here, where your votes will ultimately crown this year's Ship Showdown champion.
Here are the top eight vehicles this year, chosen by you:

Ship Showdown has long been known for delivering unexpected matchups, and this year is no exception. The first bout of the Elite Eight sees Anvil's newcomer vehicle-dropship, the Asgard, take on RSI's frontline medical support vehicle, the Ursa Medivac. Both of these contenders are recent additions to the 'verse, and despite their opposing purposes, each has its share of diehard fans. One ship delivers the pain, while its opponent was designed to soothe it. Your votes will determine who rises above, and who is forced to take their medicine. The battle for the Final Four begins here!

The quarterfinals continue with two competitors bringing the heat as Mirai's blazing-fast Razor takes on a battle-hardened vet, the venerable Anvil Gladiator. During every year of Ship Showdown, the Gladiator's devoted fans have sought to elevate their champion to take the crown. Now that this bombastic brawler has advanced to the Elite Eight, the Gladiator won't be going down without a fight. Don't count out the Razor just yet, though, as this speedster has left countless foes in its wake, most recently passing the M50 to earn this spot against Anvil's fighter-bomber. Whether through explosive performance or an explosive payload, each of these competitors is capable of tearing up the track, and only your votes decide who takes the checkered flag.

Having bested the Corsair in a wild upset, a surging Zeus Mk II ES now takes on another Drake staple, the scrappy Vulture. Paying homage to the ship that first launched humanity to the stars in 2140, this modern incarnation of the RSI Zeus features a robust radar package and living quarters suited for exploration in the deepest reaches of the 'verse. Good thing, as we're headed into uncharted territory with this match. The Vulture is one of the most popular industrial ships and has already chewed up the workhorse MOLE. The winner here will advance to the semifinals, so make your vote count!

We close out the quarterfinals with a matchup no one saw coming: RSI's mighty Polaris trains its guns on an exotic challenger, Esperia's weirdly versatile Prowler Utility. After crushing the potent Starlancer TAC in the previous round, can anything stop the Polaris on its rise to victory? The Prowler Utility will need to outmaneuver its opponent to advance and deliver a ticket to the next round. No other alien ships remain in the competition, and things only get more fierce from here. May the best ship win, and we'll see you in the semis!
Ship Showdown Prizes
The Final Four of this year's Ship Showdown will be highlighted at the Intergalactic Aerospace Expo later this year with their brand new Best-In-Show Paints for 2955, as well as a manufacturer-themed poster!
Your votes will crown one ship the ultimate winner, joining the ranks of other legendary champions of the biggest annual space smackdown in the 'verse. The winner will also receive an in-game championship pennant commemorating their 2955 win.
Take the top eight ships for a spin with the Live Showdown Free Fly starting today!
From August 26 to September 2, at 8 PM UTC, take off into the expansive Star Citizen MMO universe and fly the Elite Eight ships that our community have voted their favorites in the ‘verse for free. However you want to play, there’s a ship waiting to blast you toward your new adventure. Existing players can also access the ships by clicking the “Fly For Free” button.

Hello everyone, xē'suelen nyahyan
Last week was packed with exciting news and community highlights, from Bar Citizens to the kickoff of Ship Showdown Phase 2. As a reminder, every vote between now and September 2 matters, so don’t miss your chance to help decide the community’s favorite ship of 2025. If you’re looking to try them out for yourself, our annual Ship Showdown Free Fly event starts tomorrow, letting you hop into the Elite Eight ships and experience them firsthand.
We also aired a special episode of Star Citizen Live, where Vehicle Director John Crewe and Vehicle Art Director Ben Curtis hosted an extended Ship Showdown Q&A. They tackled community questions about the newly released Kruger L-21 Wolf, the competition itself, and a wide range of ship-related topics. If you missed it live, it’s definitely worth a watch.
The weekend was also filled with community events, once again showing just how much energy and creativity all of you bring to Star Citizen.
ATMO Esports wrapped up their Gravity Rush Finals with pilots tearing across the terrain in an adrenaline-fueled showcase of skill and speed, streamed live for everyone to enjoy.
Operation: ASD Defection was another standout, organized by Galidrum, and brought together more than 230 players across 14 organizations for a massive coordinated event. With two successful missions, three simultaneous large-scale space battles involving 150+ pilots, and an epic final showdown, it was an unforgettable, community-driven experience. Huge shoutout to everyone who took part!
Rounding things out, the Industry and Trade Expo 2955 welcomed over 600 attendees to a massive in-game exhibition. With three expo halls, more than 50 ships on display, guided tours and activities, it truly felt like a living convention. Hats off to Knebel and the Starhead Federation for pulling off such an ambitious and immersive event.
Finally, members of our team made it out to Cologne, Germany for Gamescom, where we had the pleasure of meeting many of you both on the show floor and at two Bar Citizen gatherings. It was the perfect way to cap off a week that highlighted, once again, the incredible passion of this community.

ASD’s newly uncovered Onyx facilities have been left to rot for too long. Failing tech. An unstable power core. Abandoned lab creatures left to survive on the meat of unwanted visitors. The dead and the dying deserve justice. It’s time to uncover the truth and expose the ethically void corporation that left them to perish. Blow the lid off this torment so that ASD can never hide again.

It’s the same old story: scientists running amok, thinking the rules don’t apply to them. Since turning its “expertise” to the regen crisis, ASD has been accused of horrors beyond imagining. Illegal experiments, animal torture, you name it. But pointing fingers isn’t enough - get down there and find some proof.

ASD knew how to cover its tracks. The information you’re looking for is scattered all over its festering Onyx research facilities. You’ll have to search every inch of those forsaken places, face whatever needs facing, and, while you’re at it, try to come back alive.

L-21 WOLF
A symphony of past and present, Kruger’s new Light Fighter blends golden-age aerospace styling with ultra-modern technology, proving the old ways can still be the best.
We asked the Vehicle and Gameplay teams a few questions about this new addition to the Kruger family. Here are the answers, straight from the devs themselves.
Could you introduce the Kruger brand for those unfamiliar with it, and for lore enthusiasts, are there any new developments or changes to Kruger’s lore with this ship’s release?
Renowned for their manufacturing precision and expertise, Kruger Intergalactic is the UEE's premier custom parts manufacturer with longstanding contracts with RSI, Behring, and other industry titans. As their success grew, Kruger methodically expanded operations into weapons manufacturing before partnering with RSI on the P-series snub fighters for the Constellation. The L-21 Wolf is the first ship independently developed and manufactured by the company and beautifully blends their unique design aesthetic with centuries of manufacturing expertise. To celebrate this exciting new era, Kruger updated their logo to use a sleek silver and white color scheme to embody the subtle elegance they strive for in their products.
Does the Wolf have a quantum drive?
Yes. It’s Kruger’s first fully functional spaceship, not a snub craft like their previous offerings.
What unique design elements or features do the team want to highlight most on this new ship?
Being the first ship independently developed by Kruger, we wanted to reintroduce the Kruger brand and use it as an excuse to explore the unique visuals of the manufacturer. We also wanted to:
Push the elegance of what a combat ship is in our universe
Show there is room for smooth and sleek lines on a deadly combat-focused ship
Hark back to the 50's era of concept vehicles and design that we have lost over time
Mix clean, flowing lines with a very aggressive cockpit location, intimidating weapons, and a landing stance that echoes historic single-seater warplanes
Inhalte von externen Seiten werden ohne Ihre Zustimmung nicht automatisch geladen und angezeigt.
Does Kruger bring a unique ship UI style to the Wolf?
The L-21 Wolf features an adapted version of the generic UI to fit its unique and elegant dashboard. However, a bespoke UI style for Kruger is in development.
Given Kruger’s distinctive styling, with the cockpit positioned in the mid section, how does this placement impact pilot visibility?
As the L-21 Wolf is a pure combat ship, player visibility was one of the key design goals when we set out with the early concepting. Originally, we had the cockpit sit further back on the body. However, we discovered this did impact player visibility in a negative way.
We iterated on the cockpit and the pilot’s seating position early on to be confident we could make a ship that flies as good as it looks. The pilot’s combat experience was always high on the priority list.
The current release of the Wolf does not include accessible physicalized components. Are there plans to add them in a future update?
Whilst the current release of the Wolf does not have accessible components, they are physicalised in the correct positions and will be accessible and physically swappable in a future patch.
Inhalte von externen Seiten werden ohne Ihre Zustimmung nicht automatisch geladen und angezeigt.
What kind of playstyle is the Wolf designed for? What roles or situations does it truly excel in?
The L-21 Wolf is a dedicated Light Fighter built for close-quarters engagements against other small craft. Its role centers on fast-paced dogfights, where it leverages good maneuverability, high speed, and sharp acceleration. These qualities make it a dangerous threat, not only to ships in its own class, but also to those in adjacent roles, including Medium and Heavy Fighters.
Where does Wolf sit in the Light Fighter lineup compared to other options, like the Anvil Arrow or Aegis Gladius?
The L-21 Wolf is a Light Fighter that pushes the limits of maneuverability and acceleration, placing it among top contenders like the Arrow in terms of handling and size.
However, compared to other light fighters in its class, such as the Gladius, the Wolf has a less resilient hull and a higher emissions profile than its competitors.
As a result, pilots will need to carefully manage the double S1 shield HPs.
How does Wolf perform against Medium and Heavy Fighters?
Compared to other classes, the L-21 Wolf offers significantly superior handling and a respectable amount of firepower to take on larger opponents, provided it doesn't stay exposed to enemy fire.
Inhalte von externen Seiten werden ohne Ihre Zustimmung nicht automatisch geladen und angezeigt.
Does it have any storage space or FPS weapon racks?
Yes, the pilot has an external storage on the starboard side, located behind the wing, and a small weapons rack on the port side toward the rear of the ship.
Will the fin affect the ship’s aerodynamics? Can it be toggled using the VTOL keybind?
The fin in the initial release is tied to the landing gear state only, we are investigating player control options to allow it to be manually toggled in a future patch. It currently does not dynamically impact aerodynamic handling, though when the Control Surfaces feature hits the PU you can expect it to have an impact in atmospheric yaw ability.
Is there a way to manually retract or deploy the Wolf's weapons while in SCM?
Yes, you are able to manually toggle weapons via the relevant hotkey, which triggers the retract and deploy animation.
Kruger previously created a racing variant of the Merlin, the Archimedes. Are there any plans to develop a similar racing-focused variant of the Wolf?
Currently, there are no plans to develop a racing variant. However, we would love one as we feel it fits well within Kruger's brand identity, but we will have to see what happens in the future.

TIMELESS STYLE
A symphony of past and present, Kruger’s inspiringnew ship proves its time away has only elevated its pursuitof elegance, quality, and bold design. This Light Fighterbridges the gap between the original aerial warfarersof the 20th century and the intergalactic heroes of today,reinforcing the adage that sometimes, the old ways are still the best.

“At Kruger, we believe in showing you that 'Perfection in Every Piece' is not just a slogan, but our guiding star. We began life almost four centuries ago as a custom parts manufacturer serving such industry giants as RSI and Behring. We built our reputation on precision and quality, knowing our hard work would one day carry us into a future of cutting-edge aerospace engineering.”

Every two weeks, we accompany the Roadmapupdate with a brief explanatory note to give you insight into the decision-making that led to any changes. This is part of an effort to make our communications more transparent, more specific, and more insightful for all of you who help to make Star Citizen and Squadron 42 possible.
Just a reminder: The 1.0 column showcases features and content planned for inclusion in or before Star Citizen 1.0. This means you may not have to wait for the 1.0 release to experience them. As features/content in the 1.0 column become ready, they will migrate left into a point patch column for release.
Be sure to check back every two weeks for the latest updates.
With that, let’s dive into this week’s Roadmap Roundup!

Hello everyone, xē'suelen nyahyan
First and foremost, the team is continuing their improvement efforts throughout the 4.3.0 PTU cycle, and greatly appreciates all of the feedback and reports you’ve been sharing. As mentioned last week, following testing, we’ve decided to extend Resource Drive into the upcoming patch.

With over a hundred of them, the odds of running into anyone were slim... but then, in the dark, at the end of a tunnel, I stumbled upon a quartet, an inspection team!
