Star Citizen crosses $1B crowdfunding milestone as $5,000 Odin ship goes on sale
Star Citizen has surpassed $1 billion in crowdfunding with about 6.5 million backers since 2012, while launching the Anvil Odin capital ship for $5,000 as a limited, non-playable “vehicle concept pledge” that includes a loaner Idris P until release; Odin Founders Club applications were required, and creator Chris Roberts touts a bold, enduring universe, as the game remains in early access. The news comes amid ongoing discussions about pay-to-win items, which the developers say will be earnable in-game in a future patch, and a free trial runs through May 27.
