Welcome back to the void, Captains, and let's say hello to another mid-summer update in our Summer of Star Traders event! You may have purchased this game 5 years ago, but we're still here making it better with Update #348. We've rolled out a brand-new Profession for Blade Master, Voracious Class ship design and a redesign of the Paladin Cruiser and finally a nasty new Terrox ship to battle.
Thanks to everyone for playing, posting a leaving a review!
Cyber Knights is getting lots of updates too!
If you haven’t checked it out in a bit, our new game Cyber Knights: Flashpoint is evolving fast in Early Access. Just in the month of July we've added the NanoFab crafting system to create and customize your own weapons, armor, and equipment as well as the infamous Head Hunters system, the big bad bounty hunters are coming for you! We're excited to be a part of the on-going Tacticon festival with a great sale, so come join us in the New Boston zone.
All support for Cyber Knights ultimately results in a brighter future for Star Traders, so hope you’ll check it out and spread the word!

Available immediately to all players this unlocked Captain Profession for Blade Master lets you start as a member of the ancient sect of melee warriors and entertainers. This new profession grants the Blade Dancer job and has 2 unique Traits. Blade Master captain is useful in both crew combat, boarding ship operations and during missions.
If you haven't tried a new career or run at the stars in a while, come join us again in the void with this exciting new profession!
New Ship: Voracious Class
This update also includes a new ship, the Voracious Class which is a hybrid battlecruiser-carrier using micro carrier components to provide a berth for a boarding shuttle. Popular with Steel Song (and Blade Master Captains haha) this ship is a modern redesign of one of the ships added to the game in 2017, the Raptor.
Redesigned Paladin Crusader
Based on player feedback we've redesigned the Paladin Crusader completely. If you purchased the old design on 3.3.107, congrats, you have a one-of-a-kind relic. The new v3.3.109 design is more expensive, but considerably more tuned to its role as an alternative to the Paladin Defender. We hope you like the changes!
Terrox Deathspear
Lastly we've added a new ship, the Terrox Deathspear and we're sorry to announce that it is hostile to all life in the galaxy. It is a medium size ship, with a good engine. We will be monitoring how well it does over the next few weeks. If you have any feedback after encountering a Deathspear, please let us know. This new Xeno ship isn't more powerful than other existing Xeno ships, but it is pretty different in how the AI tries to use it. Beware!
We also fixed a bunch of bugs, performance issues. blah blah the usual stuff. Thanks for playing!
