Star Citizen 2025 Review: The Year Everything Changed?

Is Star Citizen finally a game? 2025 was arguably the most critical year in the project's history. In this video, I review the entire timeline of 2025—from the rocky stabilization of the Pyro System in early 4.0 to the massive "Dawn of Engineering" update in Alpha 4.5.

We break down every major content drop, the new ships (finally flying the RSI Perseus!), and the highs and lows along the way. If you’re thinking about returning to the Verse or pledging for the first time in 2026, this review covers everything you need to know.

🚀 IN THIS VIDEO:
The 4.0 - 4.5 Timeline: How the game evolved from the first introduction of Pyro to the Dawn of Engineering.

Ship Reviews: A look at some of the 24 ships released this year, including the RSI Perseus, Anvil Paladin, and the Kruger L21 Wolf.

Engineering Gameplay: Is the new component repair and fire hazard system fun or tedious?

The State of the Game: Was the "Year of Playability" a success and is it worth your time?
