The first video is a trailer of the upcoming Cyclone MT armed buggy. On top of that, it also touches on the “Stella Fortuna” St. Patrick day event.
The second video is an extensive roundtable session with the VFX team, including the relevant developers working on the many effects that help making the game beautiful.

We recently learned that 2020 was a record year for Star Citizen’s extremely successful crowdfunding campaign, shattering the previous record from 2019.
More insight about the game’s successful year and what can be expected going forward was shared by Cloud Imperium Games CEO Chris Roberts himself.
If you want to learn even more, we recently saw a really lovely cinematic trailer. On top of that, we heard that a new studio has been opened to create new systems and content for Star Citizen.
If you’re wondering whether the game is actually fun to play, this is a good place to start.
The game’s alpha is currently playable on PC, and a star-studded single-player campaign titled Squadron 42 is in development.
