Hello everyone, xē'suelen nyahyan
Last week, we published the January 2026 Monthly Report, offering a look at how teams across the globe kicked off the year after the holiday break. From AI Features to Tech and Online Technology, development ramped back up, laying the groundwork for Alpha 4.6 and setting the tone for what’s ahead throughout 2026.
Star Citizen Live also returned for its first episode of the year with a Tech Talk featuring Chief Technology Officer Benoit Beauséjour. The discussion covered last year’s major milestones, this year’s priorities, and the technology powering the ever-evolving ‘verse in a two-hour episode: Dynamic Server Meshing, Instancing, Transport System, Long Term Persistence, Social systems, VoIP, VR, Economy, and so much more!
Tonight, the Evocati will get their hands on a Tech Preview focused on the Inventory Rework, kicking off a series of Tech Previews planned for this feature, as well as for Crafting. We are looking forward to the initial feedback from Evocati and cannot wait to bring these experiences to the PTU later on, where we can open the conversation up further and gather even more insight from the wider community.
Now, let’s take a look at what’s coming up this week:
On Tuesday, we're dropping a new Monthly Bundle. With Coramor just around the corner, look forward to a themed bundle designed to celebrate the occasion.
Wednesday sets the mood with the return of Coramor. Beyond the stars still lingers the legacy of Yuri and Cora, with citizens celebrating togetherness in all its forms. Expect themed festivities and a way to share the spirit with fellow citizens! There will be a downtime starting 11:00 UTC.
We’ll also release a new episode of Behind the Ships, with Argo's latest landing in the ’verse that very same day.
We will publish the latest Roadmap Update, including refreshed cards for Alpha 4.6, a few new additions planned for 4.7, and an updated Progress Tracker reflecting the current state of development.
Also on Wednesday, new Industrial Missions recently tested in the 4.6 PTU will make their debut, expanding opportunities for industrious crews ready to put their skills and ships to work. We’ll recap everything on Spectrum to help guide you through the new content, so keep an eye out.
Finally, on Thursday, it’s the perfect time to invite friends and jump back in, as Star Citizen will be free to play from February 12 through February 23 with a new Free Fly event and a Referral Bonus!
This Friday, don’t forget that the latest RSI Weekly Newsletter lands in your inbox. If you’re not subscribed yet, you can enable it at any time through your account settings.
