Drake didn’t just show up to DefenseCon 2956. Drake built it. Every manufacturer, one floor. You’re welcome.

Star Citizen is free to play during DefenseCon. Jump in, grab a ship, and see what you’ve been missing — no experience required.

The full lineup rotates throughout DefenseCon, and every ship and vehicle on the floor is available to rent for 48 hours through the Travelers Rental terminals. Each vehicle can be rented once. Make it count.

The schedule is below. Plan it out or wing it. If you’ve got rental questions, the FAQ has answers.

See you on the floor.
