As crazy as it may be, rumors are swirling that Chris Roberts, CEO of CIG, may have mentioned another possible time and date for Star Citizen 1.0 release. It’s as unbelievable as ever, but it is worth diving into why that is the case, and how things may progress over the next few years. This also offers a great time to discuss No Man’s Sky, the game that keeps on giving, and how it is changing the game industry.Today’s Guests:Tree0311Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/tree0311 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@tree0311 Twitter: https://twitter.com/Tree0311_SC ToC:00:00 Introductions04:40 Star Citizen Coming in 2027?26:50 The Year So Far41:20 Command Modules, The Apollo, & The Roadmap Update01:07:50 Did No Man’s Sky Just KILL STAR CITIZEN!?!?01:31:00 Expectations for The Rest of 2025Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvpiPXCO7OVJOlBIclW9tbpb2g29gur3ISupport This Podcast:Patreon Paypal Ko-FiFollow Space Tomato on social media:Website Youtube My Other Youtube Instagram Twitter Facebook Discord
