Star Citizen Nears $1 Billion
Despite Massive Funding, Singleplayer Campaign Delayed Again
Star Citizen, the ambitious space simulation game by Cloud Imperium Games, continues to break records in crowdfunding, edging closer to $1 billion raised from players by 2026. This milestone highlights the extraordinary dedication and financial support of its community, making it one of the most funded games ever. Despite this success, the game’s singleplayer campaign, Squadron 42, remains elusive with its release date still uncertain.
The development of Squadron 42 has been fraught with delays, and recent updates suggest that players may have to wait even longer before getting their hands on the standalone campaign. While the persistent funding showcases strong interest and ongoing development, the protracted timeline raises questions about when and if the full singleplayer experience will finally be playable. Meanwhile, the persistent alpha of Star Citizen’s multiplayer universe continues to evolve with incremental updates, keeping its vast player base engaged.
