Star Citizen, the Cloud Imperium Games-developed space sim and role-playing game, is continuing to hit massive crowd-funding milestones. Less than a year after the company touted $600 million raised via its community for the game's ongoing development, the $700 million mark has officially been passed.
The confirmation arrives from the company's own funding tracker, which happily displays "700,461,674" dollars raised at the time of writing. The tracker's built-in timeline also shows a sharp uptick in funds raised during the past couple of weeks. This is also when the game kicked off its latest free-to-play event, offering non-backers access to the title's persistent universe as well as almost any ship to fly during the trial. On May 25 alone, the title raised almost three million dollars.
