There’s a bit of bad news if, like us, you were quietly hoping Citizen Sleeper 2 might just squeak out before the end of 2024; developer Jump Over The Age has confirmed there’s still “around a year left of development” on its eagerly anticipated narrative sci-fi RPG sequel.
Jump Over The Age – AKA developer Gareth Damian Martin – announced they were working on a follow-up to the hugely well-received Citizen Sleeper back in June last year. Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector, as the sequel is known, introduces a brand-new Sleeper android protagonist in a new setting where players will need to build themselves a life among the stars, piloting their own ramshackle stolen ship populated by a crew they’ve recruited themselves.
An update in August gave us a first look at a new location in Citizen Sleeper 2 – a bustling way station known as Hexport – as well as confirmation it’ll be releasing for PC via both Game Pass and Steam. What we didn’t get, though, was any hint of an ETA for Citizen Sleeper 2 – and that’s where Jump Over The Age’s latest update comes in.
