2026 will focus heavily on crafting, in Star Citizen. From the inventory to item recovery, it will change the way the game works. There’s a lot riding on the feature and the mechanis surrounding it. While it’s not the whole year, it does carry a lot of expectation. Today I’m joined by TheSpaceCoder to discuss crafting, what it requires, includes, and does to the game, and when we might see it.
