Star Citizen | Behind the Ships: RSI Perseus

Did the guns get bigger? Did it get better looking?! Did the torpedo bay get freakin’ cooler? Spoiler alert, the answer is “Heck Yeah”, but you should watch just in case. Time to shoot some hoops and some big ass ships.

Legacy of Authority

Thanks to fringe expansion and the ongoing Vanduul War, security breaches and incidents at high-traffic jump points are more common than ever. When considering a modern solution for civilian and paramilitary operations, we looked to our past; to the historic Perseus gunship. Capable of shredding sub-capital-class goliaths, the mere presence of a Perseus in a blockade or patrol squad is enough to make your most aggressive enemies think twice before engaging… just like its vintage namesake.

Remote Turrets

Frontline Defense

Four bow-mounted ballistic cannons can be fully automated or remotely-controlled, keeping incoming ordnance at bay.

Disclaimer

The RSI Perseus is being offered for the first time as a limited vehicle concept pledge. This means that the vehicle is in development but it is not yet ready to display in your Hangar or to drive in Star Citizen. It will be available as playable content in a later patch. The Warbond pledges shown here include Lifetime Insurance on the vehicle hull. In the future, the vehicle price may increase and Lifetime Insurance or any extras may not be available. If you pledge towards a Perseus, you will also receive a loaner vehicle for use in Star Citizen until such time as the Perseus is included in-game. This loaner vehicle will be a currently playable vehicle of similar approximate size and/or function to the Perseus. We offer pledge ships to help fund Star Citizen’s development. The funding received from events such as this allows us to include deeper features in the Star Citizen world. These ships will be available for in-game credits and/or will be otherwise earnable through play in the final universe. They are not required to start or succeed at the game.
