The devs of Elite: Dangerous are feeling the holiday spirit once more as the game will be kicking off its festive countdown once again. This year will see 12 days of free ARX given away and the release of golden and chromed paintjobs for various ships added to the store, with new ships getting the shiny sheen every day until December 25th; the Crusader, Fed Gunship, and Fed Fighter are currently the first to get bedighted for the holidays.
In addition to this new shiny ship skin, the game’s store is also seeing a return of several seasonal ship cockpit decorations, so if you’ve missed out on the Christmas lights, winter seasons bobbleheads, or a cozy little campfire item to plop on your ship’s dashboard, you’ve got yet another year to get your goodies, assuming you’re so inclined.
