Update #346: Black Market Streets
If you havent checked it out in a bit, our new game Cyber Knights: Flashpoint is evolving fast in Early Access. In June we smashed 5 major milestones - including the new Agent EX character class, a new character creation experience for new game, dynamic evolution among Contact Traits and Services (inspired by, yes, Star Traders: Frontiers). Now, in July we're motoring toward Crafting and Head Hunters to round out a very update-hot summer. All support for Cyber Knights ultimately results in a brighter future for Star Traders, so hope youll check it out and spread the word! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1021210/Cyber_Knights_Flashpoint/
This update brings a new ship that was specifically requested by some players. The new "Wolfpack Interceptor" (not yet used by the AI) is a bare bones 3400 mass ship modeled after its bigger, and much more expensive sibling, the Wolf Vector. The "Wolfpack Interceptor" is a ready-to-customize ship built at starports across the galaxy. At only 20% of the cost of a Wolf Vector, your Captain can fly around in a ship that looks almost as good.
Update #346 handed the AI a few new ships and recently added components. Look out for your opponents sporting upgraded weapons and new hull types. One thing that has been requested by several players who specialize in Xeno hunting is some additional variety among the worst opponents in the game. With that somewhat questionable goal in mind, we've been testing some new varieties of Xeno ships. They're not yet ready to release, but they're waiting in the wings.
Update #346 This update makes several substantial adjustments to the rules around Black Market and Rumor interactions making it much easier for the player to successfully trade under several rumor conditions. First, the Rumors Spice Festival, Civil Unrest and UCF Riots temporarily, but completely, block the Faction's capacity to confiscate illegal cargo from the Captain. The Jyeeta Xeno Rumors also received a substantial reduction in faction capacity to confiscate cargo (they will take 50% less units) but an increased risk of combat with the FDF. As all Quadrant, Planet and Zone Rumors can stack, these changes allow for more fun, exploitable conditions in the Black Market caused by a confluence of Rumor events.
We appreciate everyone who alerted us to defects and issues this week while they were playing. Most of those are fixed in this update and we're pushing a new update to the Wiki to include all the new content and components.

First there was the Exodus – when survivors of a great war left the ruins of the Galactic Core behind in search of a new home in the stars. Scattered worlds were claimed on the fringe of the galaxy. Each pocket of survivors held on to their isolated set of worlds while trying to rebuild under the great law of Shalun. Three centuries later, technology has brought them back together again. Discovery of the hyperwarp has bridged what was once unimaginable distances between far-flung colonies, long-lost families, and political factions.
With that reunification has come great economic prosperity. The hyperwarp reestablished the transportation of cargo, goods, and technologies between the quadrants – but it has also brought great strife. Political rivalries have been rekindled, blood has been shed in age-old feuds, and the fires of war have been stoked. Amidst the political infighting, a ruthless revolution is rising – and the fervent explorers of the hyperwarp have awoken something that was better left asleep.
Great conflict is a time of great opportunity. For you, an aspiring Star Trader Captain who has just been given your charter, now is the time to capitalize on that opportunity.

Our very first game, Star Traders RPG, took hundreds of thousands of gamers on an interstellar adventure. The success of Star Traders and its overwhelming positive reception helped to launch Trese Brothers Games. It was the adventures of our community’s star-crossed captains that put us on a trajectory to share more of our worlds, ideas, and dreams through digital games.
We set out to capture the loneliness, bravery, and camaraderie of people living together in a spaceship sailing across the stars. It’s time to take the helm and breathe life into the these stories, characters, and stars.
It is with great pride that after the release of four other games in the Star Traders universe, we’ve created a sequel to the original Star Traders RPG. We reached out to our fan base of Star Traders Captains with our latest KickStarter campaign and pitched our ambitious plan for an all-new open world sci-fi RPG.
Step onto the bridge of your starship, take to the stars, and create your own story in Star Traders: Frontiers. Instead of being our first foray, we have brought all of the knowledge and experience to our latest and by far most ambitious project.
- Explore a rich, open universe: Discover endless procedurally-generated galactic maps, meet unique characters, and take on enemies to conquer the galaxy!
- Become an intergalactic captain: Take on the role of a spy, smuggler, explorer, pirate, merchant, bounty hunter, and more (21 jobs total)!
- Customize your own spaceship: Choose from more than 300 upgrades and build your very own vessel to venture across the vast reaches of space.
- Assemble and tailor a loyal crew: Assign talents and equip specialized gear for every spaceship crew member.
- Experience an ever-changing narrative: Decide to make friends or foes with other factions and influence political, economic, and personal vendettas.
