Currently, there is an anniversary sale of the upcoming space MMO Star Citizen, which is significantly boosting crowdfunding.
Star Citizen is known for making a crazy amount of money with virtual spaceships. But the sums that are circulating always astonish.
During the anniversary sale, some of the already “sold-out” spaceships are available again, which particularly appeals to collectors. They also spend a lot of money in the sale.
As the site Dualshockers reports,
- Star Citizen made about one million US dollars from Saturday to Sunday because many ships were cheaper for Black Friday
- and then on Monday, another half a million came in!
Spaceships are Collectible Items
The spaceships of Star Citizen have become much more than just “tools” that one can eventually fly in the game. For many, it has become a passion to add these ships to their fleet. While some people collect books or small crystal figures, Star Citizen fans indulge in virtual spaceships. And an anniversary sale comes at just the right time.
To boost the sale, a new video was also released. This showcases the spaceships from the manufacturer Origin. This includes the two ships 600i and 890 Jump.
Crowdfunding Is Growing
Thanks to the anniversary sale, the crowdfunding amount that Cloud Imperium Games has been able to raise for Star Citizen has increased to 167,747,118 dollars. So far, 1,921,715 backers have participated.
Star Citizen remains one of the most anticipated games. Every video is devoured, such as the keynote for CitizenCon.
