The new city in Star Citizen serves as an oasis amidst the snow and ice of Stanton IV. The spaceport of New Babbage can be found outside of the city, which will allow players to land more easily due to the lack of nearby structures and obstructions. The spaceport’s atrium provides a transit system to shuttle travelers directly into the city, and the window-filled bullet trains allow for a spectacular view during the 24-kilometer journey.
With its treadmills, bean bag chairs, and cafes, the Commons in Star Citizen’s New Babbage is an ideal place for people to hang out and work out in their downtime. In contrast to the leisurely Commons, the Plaza is geared towards business and the commercial side of life, providing office space and shops where players can purchase mining equipment or components for their ships. The Nest Apartments is the sleek habitation area, offering high-tech dwellings with spectacular views at the top of the highest buildings in the city.
Star Citizen is in development for PC.
