Happy Citizen Sleeper day!
It’s a little wild to think about, but four years ago Citizen Sleeper first invited us to live on the edge of interstellar capitalism. Two years ago, Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector took us even further into the stars, into the shifting, fragile lives of those that live in the Starward Belt.
Both games have gone on to receive widespread critical acclaim, but more importantly, they’ve found a home with players around the world. To date, these hopeful, human sci-fi stories have been experienced by millions of Sleepers. That’s something we don’t take for granted.
The Citizen Sleeper games are about survival, community, and the small choices that shape who we become. Watching so many people connect with these stories and carry them with them long after the credits roll has meant more to us than we can properly put into words.
To celebrate the anniversary, we’re making it easier than ever to step aboard. Citizen Sleeper is currently 70% off (Steam, GOG, Humble Store, Epic Games Store), while Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector is 50% off (Steam, GOG, Humble Store, Epic Games Store), its biggest discount to date.
It's also your last chance to get the exquisite Citizen Sleeper 2: Design Works from Lost in Cult, packed with detail and gorgeous illustrations. Treat yourself to the deluxe or anniversary editions, or pick up the Spindlejack and Cycles of the Eye tabletop RPGs!
Speaking of tabletop RPGs, we're excited to announce that Jump Over the Age is working on a new Citizen Sleeper tabletop RPG called Helion Rising. It's currently in development, and is expected in 2027! (Date is subject to change.)
Whether you’re arriving for the first time or returning to see things from a different perspective, this is the perfect moment to jump in.
If you joined us at the very beginning, found your way here later, or are only just discovering the series now, thank you. These stories exist because of the people who play them, share them, and keep them alive.
As for what's next? Keep an eye on the PC Gaming Show, which is broadcasting on June 7th at 12pm PST. That's all we can say for now…
Turn your eyes starward,
Jump Over the Age and Fellow Traveller
