In August 2025, Star Citizen subscribers missed early PTU access but received exclusive ASD-themed items, including the Greycat Refinery Suit for Centurions and a massive preserved juvenile Valacar specimen for Imperators. Additionally, subscribers could purchase a discounted bundle of these items and access the Aries Twins vehicles, with the community invited to share feedback on the content.
In the August 2025 Star Citizen subscriber update, the usual subscriber perk of early wave access to the PTU was nullified this month due to the 4.3 build being made available to all backers simultaneously. Despite this, RSI subscribers still received a range of exclusive ASD-themed items. The content this month is especially exciting for virtual photographers and those interested in unique in-game decorations and suits.
Centurion subscribers were treated to the Greycat Refinery Suit ASD edition, a cosmetic outfit that does not provide any environmental protection. This suit is similar to the True Barrier Hazard outfit released the previous year. There is hope among the community that with the upcoming Starware system, such suits might gain additional functionality or protection features in the future.
Imperator subscribers received what is likely the largest decorative item ever given in the game: a preserved juvenile Valacar specimen. This impressive piece dwarfs the previous Valacar flare and is large enough to nearly fill a freight elevator. However, the current PTU version of this item still appears to lack its final polish and does not snap to the grid as expected. Players can view this flare by copying their account to the PTU or waiting for the 4.3 live release, expected in a couple of weeks.
Additionally, subscribers have the option to purchase a discounted bundle containing both the Centurion suit and the Imperator Valacar flare. To claim this flare for their hangar, players must subscribe before 2000 UTC on August 11th. This limited-time offer gives subscribers a chance to enhance their in-game customization options with these exclusive items.
The vehicles of the month are the Aries Twins: Centurions gain access to the Aries Ion, and Imperators to the Aries Inferno. Both vehicles are available on the pledge store with enhanced insurance and can be flown until September 2nd. The community is encouraged to share their thoughts on this month’s content through the sentiment poll and comments, as the developers continue to engage with their player base.
