Cloud Imperium is on the Gamescom show floor this week demoing Star Citizen for press and fans alike. If you’re wishing you could join them but can’t zip over to Cologne, how about a free fly event? The GAMESCOM2016 promo code will allow everyone access to the alpha until Monday and includes access to the Mustang Gamma, Sabre, and Freelancer ships.
The full schedule of Star Citizen festivities is posted to the official site; today, streaming has already resumed. If you tune in for only one thing, make it Friday’s annual presentation (3 p.m. EDT), during which Chris Roberts will recap the last year of development and take a peek at the procedural planet system on the way.
Plus, check out all these people enjoying all the “vaporware” on display.
