Over 10 Years After It Was Announced, Star Citizen’s Single-Player Squadron 42 Is ‘Feature Complete’ - IGN::Star Citizen developer Cloud Imperium Games has said Squadron 42, the single-player portion of its controversial space sim, is finally “feature complete”, over a decade after it was announced.
Only if they make a full release next year. Otherwise, they’ll set a new record for slowest development cycle, assuming they finally release it. You can’t forget that Duke Nukem only actually got the medal because they actually released it.
DNF had a 14 year dev cycle and this has already been exceeded by Beyond Good and Evil 2 at 22 years. So no, Star Citizen S42 isn’t going to win that award.
A game only gets the title if it releases. There’s pretty much no indication that Beyond Good and Evil 2 will ever be released.
