Star Citizen

Whether Star Citizen will ever release in full is a question for the ages- one that we’ve been asking for years, and one that, by all accounts, we’ll likely be asking for some time to come. But even in the prolonged absence of those critical details, the long-in-development space-faring MMO continues to attract interest from a prospective audience.

It has, for instance, now surpassed $750 million in crowdfunding across its lifetime. More specifically, as per the game’s official website, at the time of writing, it has generated $758,329,602 in crowdfunding. That’s up from $700 million in June earlier this year. Clearly, the fact that the game has been in early access for what feels like forever and shows no signs of releasing in full anytime soon hasn’t had much effect on its crowdfunding momentum.

Officially, Star Citizen still has no release date, while its standalone single-player narrative-driven spinoff Squadron 42, also long in development, is due out sometime in 2026- though that game has also been known for delays, so that might not necessarily be set in stone.
