A Hand Within Geomancy

Black Iron

A rare and hyper dense material revered by the ancient Ryuvians for its virtual indestructibility. Its exact formation and properties are beyond the understanding of current scientific knowledge. The Church of Ryuvia worshiped black iron and fashioned it into an ...

Orchestrated Arms Race

A selection of fire arms that have become widely recognised in their association with PACT antics.

Don't worry, the lingering arms holding on tight aren't standard issue (at least we hope).

PACT Sagittarius-Class Fast Assault Carrier

Developed from PACT's first ground up designed capital ship, the Dagger-Class Fast Cruiser, the Sagittarius Class is now the primary workhorse of the People's Armada. Outfitted with six powerful kinetic rail guns, a massive nose particle cannon, and a compartment of up to 26 ryders, the Sagittari...

Overdue Comforting

Cross the Palm with Silver

Engineering on a Budget

R&D has continued their hard work spec'ing out just what options could be available to the cast members in terms of expanding their specialisations on the battlefield, in particular two units who are on course to make their Sunrider 4 battlefield debut in the next beta.

That said who si...

New Kids on the Block

Two more ryders join the halls of the R&D bay, they'll be ready for their test flights right after they're given their seal of approval from the Chief Engineer. We had best hope their owners reappear in time for the next beta version else you'll just have to make do with some t-posing decorat...

Deserved Downtime

There may be plenty yet to resolve but it doesn't mean the girls can't have some time to themselves every now and again, lets just hope they don't get too distracted and take us into spin off game territory.

Tailored Armaments

Impressions still remain early around Kuushana but she certainly already carries an air of being unrelenting, be it on the bridge or on the battlefield she has a loadout ready for when she needs to play a part.

Rekindled Adversary

Having emerged out of Liberation Day on an advantageous footing it now falls to Fontana to define the next chapter when it comes to PACT and capitalise on the chaos stirred in its wake. No extended holidays on mining planets to be found in this backstory.

Galactic Sightseeing

You didn't really think we'd send you into unknown environments without any intel did you, location previews make a return and will get you up to speed before you decide if you want to proceed with your dock.

The current screenshot is taken from the galaxy map within the Sunrider 4 develop...

Decorated Service

While Kuushana is one of the more well known new characters thanks to her inclusion in the Liberation Day extended ending, it still remains that her involvement to date is somewhat of a footnote of things to come. 

For now though Fontana and Kuushana keep their discussions behind close...

Background Tactics

The PACT Station offers both a reminder of the ambitions of PACT as well as strong support capabilities in field operations to boot. They might not make it to the top of your list in terms of priority targets at a first glance but it shouldn't be underestimated what they can achieve when left to ...

Timetable Oversight

As expected of a new ship there is now a new layout for us all to get familiar with, this will also mean that a new ship map is required and will be your main tool in tracking who is occupying what parts of the ship at any given time so that you can plan out what interaction you're going to trigg...

Health Check

No matter how many times we clear the project folder for the sick bay it continues to fill with concept art without any prompting.

Forces unknown are at work with the development of this one, perhaps someone has a certain interest in it following a certain design...

Popularity Contest

It is quite often said that you can't buy love, but with recent technological advances who is to say it can't be used as a currency? Through character affection the player will be able to unlock a number of perks as they work their way towards maxing out their favourite cast member. 

P...

From Outline to Fill

While the style for Marqui Johanna has ultimately changed between our initial sketches and a rendered concept it just goes to show that the creative process is an evolving one with tweaks being made even as the ink dries.

Spell Caster: Debuff Warfare

As you'd imagine of a ryder that is maintained by Claude her newest companion makes use of numerous strange parts of equipment along with novel gadgets that in the heat on the moment really demonstrate their worth, unfortunately this means she hasn't really taken her own weapon systems into accou...

Phoenix MK2: Flight to New Heights

Initial Idea Prototype Description (Pre-Model)

ASSAULT: x2 Mini-Rifles
The Mark II comes equipped with dual light rifles, more so to counter missiles than to serve as a weapon.

MELEE: x7 Ceramic Katana
The Mark II has vastly imp...

Dormant Mystery

Jem'Hyre is another face we know so little about yet already you can feel that there is something unsettling brewing behind that smirk, if there is something being guarded perhaps this is one of those cases where it is best left alone.

Phoenix MK2: Reinforced and Vitalised

Unlike many of the other members of the cast who have moved onto a brand new series of ryder, Icari has opted to continue to tinker with her beloved Phoenix with the Mark II bringing more speed and yes you guessed it, less armour. 

Just like before she will continue to hone her battle ...

The Floating Fortress, Rogue Asteroid Base

For those with more rustic tastes and an eye for mother nature it could be decided that you don't need to pour quite as many credits into advanced manufacturing when you can utilise what is already in orbit. 

We hear your new base would also deal bonus damage against dinosaur affinity ...

Wet Powder Manoeuvres

Icari Isidolde

A former rogue-turned-soldier for hire whose exploits during the Neutral Rim War bestowed upon her the moniker of the greatest mercenary in the Neutral Rim. You first ran into her as a possible enemy while she was on a secret job from the late Admiral Harold ...

No Longer a Trick of the Eyes

Miirage continues to take on her form that she will soon be grounded in when it comes to the Sunrider series, lets just hope when she formally introduces herself she is friend rather than foe.

Sunrider 4: The Captain's Return Beta 0.011

We said it was coming, and it is now here. Your first hands on preview of the content strung together from the development build. Please note the build is specifically geared towards the Windows OS system at this time and you may require the assistance of third party tools to launch if you p...
