This Week in Star Citizen - March 24, 2025

Hello everyone, xē'suelen nyahyan

Last week, we shared the latest installment of our ongoing Patch Watch series, spotlighting some exciting updates coming in Alpha Alpha 4.1. Highlights include Corsair balancing, improved pilot firepower across multiple multicrew ships, details about the new radar style, AI improvements, mining updates, and more! For the full breakdown, check out Patch Watch – “The Power Is Mine” on Spectrum!

We also introduced Argo’s brand-new power suit built for mining gameplay in the latest episode of Behind the Ships: meet the ATLS GEO!

Meanwhile, the teams are charging ahead toward the release of Alpha 4.1. With launch imminent, we’re wrapping up the final touches while also setting our sights on 4.1.1 and beyond. As always, thank you for your continued support and feedback!

Now, let's see what's going on this week:

We’ve got an action-packed week ahead with the imminent release of Alpha 4.1! This update delivers a bevy of quality-of-life improvements and fresh content — including a brand-new sandbox activity, two new vehicles, new armors, a VOLT weapon, exciting locations to explore, and more! Alongside the release, we'll also publish two Q&As - one for the Drake Golem, and one for the ATLS GEO. Keep an eye out for those!

Tuesday kicks things off with a deep dive into Drake Interplanetary’s latest addition, the Drake Golem, in Behind the Ships. Learn more about the new mining starting ship, and the design philosophies behind it. Also dropping on Tuesday: the March Squadron 42 Newsletter - time to sharpen your Vanduul language skills. Don't forget to subscribe to "Squadron 42 Updates" in your Account Settings.

Wednesday brings the latest Roadmap Update & Roadmap Roundup, keeping you up to date on what’s ahead.

On Thursday, tune in for a new episode of Inside Star Citizen on our official YouTube channel. This week’s episode, "Align and Mine", is all about Alpha 4.1, giving you a closer look at the new content, and adventures coming with our latest major update.

Finally, on Friday, we'll wrap up the week with the RSI Weekly Newsletter, recapping the highlights, showcasing community content, and offering a sneak peek of things to come.

But that’s not all - this weekend, two thrilling community events are set to take center stage.

The first System Seven Races will see the top 16 teams from the qualifiers go head-to-head in back-to-back races, pushing their skills to the limit as they fight for the podium.

Meanwhile, the Crux Cup 24H will challenge ten teams in an intense endurance race where speed alone won’t be enough - fuel efficiency and strategy will determine who has the skill and nerve to go the full distance.
