The trailer, which was released at the Star Citizen fan event CitizenCon, shows celebrities like Gillian Anderson, Mark Hamill, Gary Oldman, Mark Strong, Henry Cavill, John Rhys Davies, Liam Cunningham, and Ben Mendelsohn. We don’t know for sure, but this appears to be one of the most celebrity-filled video games ever. Check out the trailer below.
The trailer comes not long after Cloud Imperium Games shared more details on Star Citizen’s new Alpha 3.3 update. It adds a new face-scanning Face over IP feature, as well as more ships, weapons, enemy characters, and lots more. Check out GameSpot’s interview with the developer here to learn more.
Squadron 42, which bills itself as a “cinematic single-player adventure,” sees you playing as a rookie combat pilot. Along the way, you’ll come into contact with the characters played by all the celebrities in the trailer above.
Pledging $45 gets you instant access to the Arena Commander dogfighting/racing mode and the first-person shooter mode Star Marine. These modes, and Squadron 42, like Star Citizen, remain in active development with no official release date announced as of yet.
