A Town Hall is coming this week, as closed-beta testing of SAGE C4 has begun and the PTR launch finally appears to be getting close, for real this time! Meanwhile, Holosim is officially taking a back seat so both the team and the players can focus on SAGE C4. Beyond that, we got an update on the tabletop RPG campaign, alongside some beautiful new concept art sneak peeks.

This week’s update brings a clearer look at where both Holosim and SAGE C4 are heading. The team continues to rework combat responsiveness in Holosim while also teasing upcoming marketplace and drone systems. The biggest news by far, however, is that work is being performed on introducing regional governance for SAGE C4. Beyond that, the first five players for the inaugural Embercoil campaign have now officially been selected.

This week’s update is led by the long-awaited Holosim Chapter 2 rewards announcement, which quickly became a discussion point after the community flagged discrepancies in ship valuations. Alongside that, we got a solid look at ongoing UE5 progress, movement in the Embercoil campaign selection, and a rather unusual outcome in DAO governance, with PIP-31 passing on paper but ultimately being withdrawn.

Last week, we got our first glimpse of Ship Configurations in the upcoming SAGE C4. Meanwhile, in Holosim, the Superphoenix event went live, giving players their first chance over the past few days to take on the ECOS Titan ship. On the governance side, PIP-31 opened to fund Star Seekers 2 and will remain open for voting for two weeks. Lastly, applications are now open for players looking to take a seat at the table in the first official Embercoil RPG campaign.

Holosim Chapter 2 went live last week. Since its release, patches have kept rolling out at a fast pace. Other than that, the week was light on newsworthy events. Some light was shed on potential Holosim Chapter 3 improvements, and we’ve got two more PIPs that will open for voting soon.
