Roadmap

The Roadmap refers to a section on the RSI website where the development progress of Star Citizen and Squadron 42 can be tracked on a webpage.^[1]^[2]^[3] The current design of the roadmap was published December 23rd 2020.^[4]

There are two sections:

Release view: shows progress from a patch specific perspective
Progress tracker: shows progress from a deliverable perspective or a development team perspective.

Development

Star Citizen 1.0 Roadmap column (April 2026)

The roadmap has been built by Turbulent.^[5] In March 2020, CIG announced that the existing roadmap linear format did not match the approach CIG taking in the development, and that they were considering basing it on the internal sprint-tracking process.^[6] In July 2020 CIG presented four points they would present about the new roadmap, an explanation of the goals, a rough mockup, a work in progress version, and then finally the transition, leading to the community making memes about a roadmap to the roadmap.^[7]

The 1.0 column

Since the CitizenCon 2024 and the presentation of what is planned for version 1.0, the roadmap includes features and content planned for inclusion in or before Star Citizen 1.0. This means we may not have to wait for the 1.0 release to experience them. As features/content in the 1.0 column become ready, they will migrate left into a point patch column for release. ^[8]
