In the spirit of being open with their community, Star Citizen has updated their production schedule, and aims to release Patch 2.6.1 on February 16, 2017. Rather than being a bigger content patch, 2.6.1 will wax already established features, including Star Marine, along with improvements to the user interface.

Keep in mind, the timeline is not carved in stone but an approximation.

2.6.1 is intended to be a bugfixing/polish patch rather than a larger content patch, with the main aim of improving the player experience and building upon the foundations for features we introduced in 2.6.0. Because of this, we’re aiming for a closer release date than for our larger patches since there are fewer features being worked on. What we have represented in the schedule below are the smaller improvements to improve the player experience, such as further balancing to ship speeds, improvements to grenades in Star Marine, and some new additions to the menus.

If you missed the community content trailer, from early in the month which is quite cinematic, I highly suggest checking it out below.
