Can Benoit's Plan Salvage Star Citizen in 2026? (Ft. TheAstroHistorian)

Star Citizen has taken a month-long pause to stabilize and get its bearings. With 4.10 in testing, instancing around the corner, and a plan to make the game more stable over the next several updates, players are wondering how much the words of the CTO at CIG will stick. Today I’m joined by The Astro Historian to discuss the state of Star Citizen, the plan to revitalize it in H2 2026, and why it may or may not work.
