November 2025 was Star Citizen’s greatest funding month on record, beating the previous November 2023 by nearly $4M.

This is especially impressive considering that IAE 2023 ran from Nov 17 to 30 (so all IAE sales were captured in November), whereas IAE 2025 is running Nov 20 to Dec 3. There are more insane statistics as to how record-breaking this year has been, but let’s see where they finish up first.
