With the release of Alpha 3.1 just a few ways away, Star Citizen's developers are showcasing the new ships and vehicles that will soon be flyable (or drivable) for everyone who pledged for them.

We get to see the Anvil Terrapin, the Aegis Reclaimer, the Misc Razor, the Tumbril Cyclone, and the Nox Nue.

Patch 3.1 won't just bring new flyable ships, but it also promises considerable performance improvement that should make the alpha experience smoother for many.

You can check out the trailers below. If you want to learn more about Star Citizen, you can check out our meaty interview with  Global Head of Development and Foundry 42 Studio Director Erin Roberts. If you want to see more, you can enjoy a recent video about the technology that will allow the crew of our capital ship to feel like a living team in Squadron 42, and the impressive vertical slice from December with added developer commentary.
