Play Star Citizen for free this week

“On the fence about Star Citizen? Why not give it a try and see what we’re building! For the next week, we’re enable Free Fly access to all accounts… which means that anyone can jump in to Star Citizen Alpha 2.1.2 today!”

This latest Free Fly event will demonstrate a lot of the polish and additions made to Star Citizen since the last even.

Most importantly, it’ll give a lot of you who are on the fence about whether to invest in or purchase Star Citizen, come its release, a trial run.
