Happy Monday, everyone!

We're entering the final stretch of Alpha 4.7, wrapping up the last details and polishing the build ahead of its release on the live servers later this week. This update introduces the first iteration of Crafting, along with new locations to explore and fresh content that's well worth getting your hands dirty for. Want a sneak peek? Check out last week's Inside Star Citizen: Alpha 4.7 Patch Report. We're looking forward to you digging in. Literally.

Stella Fortuna is in full swing until March 30, and the 'verse has been draped in gold and green. It’s the season for bold choices, sharp instincts, and tempting fate with a cheeky grin. To celebrate, we're hosting a stunt video contest: thirty seconds of in-game chaos. If it feels slightly irresponsible but absolutely legendary, you're doing it right. Full details and prizes are available on Spectrum.

Now, let's crack into what's coming up this week:

Wednesday is set to be packed, with Alpha 4.7 aiming to go live and, with it, the first iteration of Crafting and the new QV Breaker Stations. We'll have a Crafting guide and an Operation Breaker Stations FAQ on Spectrum to get you up to speed before you head in.

Also, Behind The Ships returns with a look at a classic and its evolution.

Wednesday winds down with the Roadmap Update and Roadmap Roundup dropping in the evening for those who like to stay laser-focused on what's ahead.

Friday closes the week with the RSI Weekly Newsletter landing in your inbox. A little something to read between hauls.

Fly low, and fly fast!

HIJACK! A Star Citizen Action Movie

by NATRONIX (EE STUDIOS)

This week's MVP is a machinima that starts with a distress call and ends with something we can only describe as inspired mission debriefing logistics. Heads up: the Huxley crew swear as good as they fly.

Seriously, watch this.
