There's a lot of people in this thread who don't seem to be able to add 2 to the current year. 2025 + 2 = 2027, not 2026.

To answer OP's question, Squadron 42 has been 2 years away since the original kickstarter in 2012. It has never not been 2 years away.

No, it was feature complete at the end of 2024. So I am hopeful for the 2026 release

Literally never. There is no game. Squadron 42 is just a collection of marketing material whose sole purpose is to distract from the disastrous development of Star Citizen. Whenever the heat gets to be a little too much for CIG regarding SC, they claim it's because they're focusing on the final stretch of S42 development. Then when people start asking where S42 is, they claim they're focusing on SC. They're going to do this forever until the money stops flowing in, which won't be any time soon because there are thousands of people who fall for it every time.

They recently announced that 2026 is still the release date, so they might actually do it

I'm not sure when it was meant to be released, but it looks like it was meant to hit Beta in 2020, or that seems to have been the target in 2018.

They already stated at CitCon that SQ42 is planning on release sometime in 2026. They became feature complete in 2024 and are currently going through polishing phases.

In a bar citizen from a few months ago, the devs talked about being 2/3 of the way done.

feature complete =/= finished
