Cloud Imperium Games just dropped its fourth major update to Star Citizen in 2023 with the release of Alpha 3.22: Wrecks to Riches. Chris Roberts’ spacefaring MMO.

The update is intended in part to fulfill CIG’s commitments made at CitizenCon 2953 to integrate technology and content from Squadron 42, the project’s singleplayer module, into Star Citizen proper. The first addition coming over from Squadron 42 is the inclusion of 20 new hairstyles, allowing players to create more diverse looks for their digital selves within the game.

The update introduces also structural salvage support, allowing players to explore and salvage derelict settlements. Additionally, three new vehicles have been added, such as the Aopoa San’tok.yai fighter and Drake’s Cutter Rambler.

Star Citizen’s popular PvP location, Junktown, has been expanded with Echo Isle, a fourth location and one designed specifically for battle royale style gameplay. There’s also Raven’s Roost, designed for light ground vehicles and Paradise Cove, which should offer shelter from aerial threats.

Arena Commander has seen some additions  in 3.22, as well.  Two new maps, Bloodshot Ridge and Maker’s Point have been added. A number of new modes, including Team Elimination, 2v2 Duo Showdown, and Single Weapon Elimination mode have also been added.
