Last week gave us a clearer picture of how SAGE C4 may transition from testing into a live economy. The team is expanding the Nemesis Engine, reworking Council Rank progression, and weighing the risks and rewards of Claim Stakes. Beyond C4, Chris published his farewell to Star Atlas, UE5 development is moving forward on version 5.8, and PIP-36 passed after a remarkable late reversal in support.

Last week was dominated by SAGE C4 Phase 3. While the team missed its hoped-for end-of-week release window, we got the clearest picture yet of what the next phase will actually look like: a new starter bundle, much tighter economic balancing, a full fleet recovery and medallion system, and a considerably more capable Nemesis Engine. Beyond C4, we got updates on the road to z.ink mainnet, the return of UE5 multiplayer, and the ongoing DAO Council election.

This week’s issue looks beyond the current SAGE C4 PTR and toward what comes next. We got our first proper look at base-building in Project Galia, learned more about the roadmap for SAGE C4 Phase 3 and the team’s plans for balancing the economy ahead of mainnet, and saw the launch of Fleet Rentals v2. We wrap up with a few smaller community updates from across the ecosystem.

Last week was relatively light on news, but Holosim Chapter 2 continues to move full steam ahead, with near-daily patches rolling out from the team. Alongside that, two PIPs are currently open for you to vote on! Lastly, on a more somber note, the team lost some notable individuals due to recent cost-saving measures.

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.

After weeks of delays and near-launches, Holosim Chapter 2 finally has a date: Tuesday, March 10th. That wasn’t the only news this week. A public Star Atlas lore wiki is on the horizon, the DAO Casters are known, and the DAO will employ José for the next 6 months!

This week is all about steady progress rather than big headlines. Holosim Chapter 2 still hasn’t launched, but it’s clearly getting close, with core systems like the new Combat UI and zProfile integration falling into place. Meanwhile, UE5 development continues to expand the Galia experience, z.ink ticks off a key milestone, and DAO voting is heading toward its conclusion.

This week brought plenty of developments across both SAGE and Holosim. In SAGE, crafting fees were reduced, ship recipes returned, and Loyalty Point rewards were adjusted. Holosim Chapter 1 came to a close with ONI taking the crown, but not without its share of technical hurdles. Chapter 2 promises major changes to address them. Finally, governance proposal PIP-19 remains open for voting, and we have the latest dev log posts from Chip.
