Hello, Wayfarers!
Now that you’ve had time to stretch your legs after The Great Wipe, we’re excited to gather your feedback about all the new updates! Keep those bug reports coming in! Each one helps us build a better experience for our Early Access launch!
Members of our community have already been hard at work honing their building skills. In fact, one of the community builds is the home of this week’s Community Event: Trivia “Night”!
On Sunday, July 26, 2026 at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET, come on down to Chef Jerek’s House of Kebabs on Velogas IV and test your Stars Reach knowledge! We’re told there are going to be prizes!
You can join us to participate in game, but we'll also be hanging out in the Discord [Auditorium], and on [Twitch] as well!
Just portal over to Velogas IV! You can’t miss the place!
Chef Jerek welcomes you! They serve our favorite kebabs in the galaxy!
More Coverage Means More Fun!
We’re delighted to share that press coverage is still popping up (with more to come)!
