As you might infer from its title, the Stellar Prisoner’s new questline concerns a mysterious figure who is literally imprisoned in a neutron star. It also appears that neutron stars will be objectives in a battle arena mode, conferring special bonuses to whomever controls them.
Features include:
- Neutron Star: a battle arena that provides bonuses to players who control this special node.
- A new quest triggered upon the discovery of the Neutron Star.
- A new Endless Virtual hero.
- A new Cravers Prime hero, unlocked by the community during an ARG.
- Two new, unique planets.
- Modding improvements, including the ability to edit visuals (hero, quests, events) and textures (planets, ships).
- General performance and AI improvements - there's a full set of patch notes here on Steam.
