Chris Roberts, creator of Star Citizen, claims the upcoming single-player spinoff Squadron 42 could be “almost as big an event” as Grand Theft Auto 6 when it launches in 2026.  Star Citizen has been in development for nearly 13 years and has raised over $1 billion from players, sparking both intense support and accusations of being a scam.  Squadron 42 is set to feature 30-40 hours of gameplay, big space battles, and Hollywood talent like Gillian Anderson, Henry Cavill, and Gary Oldman. Roberts says the game will launch in a window that avoids GTA 6’s May 2026 release, hoping to carve out its own spotlight.  Despite the hype, many critics online doubt Squadron 42 could come close to GTA 6, which analysts expect to be the biggest entertainment launch ever.  Star Citizen itself still has no final release date, with Roberts suggesting a full 1.0 launch could arrive in 2027 or 2028. #starcitizen #squadron42 #gaming #gta6
