Aephia News
Five years ago, Aephia Industries was founded with the ambition to become more than just another Star Atlas guild. As we celebrate our fifth anniversary, we reflect on our journey, the current state of Star Atlas, the tools and community we’ve built together, and our plans for SAGE C4, Cataclysm: Battle for Iris, and the years ahead.

This week’s update centers on two major developments. On the governance side, the DAO approved ATMTA’s historic reimbursement proposal, bringing one of the most widely discussed PIPs in Star Atlas history to a close. Meanwhile, Michael (CEO) shared a much deeper look at how regional governance in SAGE C4 is expected to work, including the role of housing, crew, and voting power in shaping the political landscape. We wrap up with a few smaller community updates and a heads-up that SAGE C4 Phase 2 is now just around the corner!

This week’s update centers on the future of SAGE C4. Beyond further details on the upcoming Phase 2 rollout, Michael shared that the planned off-chain version of C4 is evolving into a full single-player campaign, one that may ultimately replace Holosim as Star Atlas’ primary onboarding experience. We also got new details on z.ink validator licenses, the latest quarterly Economic Report, and an update on the ongoing DAO reimbursement vote.

Last week’s news was dominated by further discussion and the opening of the DAO vote on ATMTA’s historic reimbursement proposal. This is arguably one of the most consequential governance discussions the Star Atlas community has faced in quite some time. Beyond that, SAGE C4 Phase 2 development is ongoing and will bring support for zXP, the complete Cultivation Claim gameplay loop, and the first rollout of the Nemesis Engine — starting with Jorvik NPCs and the fleet transfer mechanics that pave the way for piracy, refueling, cargo transfers, and more.

This week’s update is all about what comes next for SAGE C4. During Atlas Brew #209, the team laid out the roadmap for the next PTR phases, including Combat V2, the Nemesis NPC engine, regional governance, and the first real look at how crew may evolve into a gameplay system of their own. Beyond that, we got fresh insights into the team’s Steam ambitions for UE5, two noteworthy DAO proposals, and a handful of smaller updates from across the ecosystem.

SAGE C4 is live on the PTR! SAGE’s biggest update to date is now available in open beta, running on the z.ink testnet, which also launched last week. The Town Hall also gave us the clearest z.ink update in quite some time, alongside the release of the UE5 features we’ve been seeing throughout this year’s Atlas Brews. Lastly, a new DAO funding proposal is open to support a community-run UE5 tournament from the folks at Superphoenix DAO.

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 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.
