Star Citizen: Ares Star Fighter

Star Citizen features a vast array of starships, each with its own manufacturer, lore, and brand system, reflecting the game’s meticulous world-building. New ships are unveiled much like real-world car or tech product launches.

With this in mind, Midnight Sherpa was commissioned to create a launch spot for the Ares Star Fighter, the latest intergalactic fighter from Crusader Industries. Using in-game 3D assets, our team optimized and designed a cinematic reveal that built up to the grand debut of the starship. The piece premiered across social media and YouTube, offering Star Citizen’s fanbase an exciting first look. I contributed to the UI design and animation, integrating futuristic interface elements that enhanced the high-tech aesthetic of the launch.
