April is behind and spring is in full blast here on the northern hemisphere - and there's no surer sign of spring than the up-coming Early Access release, now confirmed for the 17th June 2021! We also released new feature videos about Capital Ships and the long-awaited Easy Build Mode for spaceships in April.
Meanwhile, Starbase Discord received 3 new Starbae emojis - big thanks to Lingon_#9762 for them! Haven't seen them in action yet? Just head on over to the Discord and use them to your heart's content. Here's a little preview for you all.
If you're looking to start the new month with a bang, you're in luck. There are two PvP events this week: Moon Mayhem 3 on Friday May 7th at 18:00-20:00 UTC and Territory Warfare on Saturday May 8th at 19:00-21:00 UTC. Territory Warfare is a brand new event format where teams battle in the territories between Empire Outpost C and Pirate Base. Tune in on #event-announcements on Starbase Discord for more info!
