Ubisoft has announced that the Starlink: Battle for Atlas Crimson Moon update will be coming to PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch on the 30th April 2019.
The very same day that the newly-announced PC version, which also includes the Crimson Moon expansion, is set to release.
Starlink: Battle for Atlas Crimson Moon Update
Available for free on the above-mentioned platforms, the Crimson Moon update – which Ubisoft has characterised as “significant” – centres on the titular Crimson Moon and its sudden appearance in the Atlas system.
Providing players with the opportunity to compete in both single-player and two-player split-screen races, test their mettle against waves of opponents in the Crimson Colosseum, and, more importantly, undertake a number of brand-new faction missions and weekly challenges.
The Crimson Moon expansion also introduces five new pilots, three new starships, and eleven new weapons, available separately as a digital-only purchase.

“A Fun and Enjoyable Open-World Space Sim”
Despite some relatively repetitive side-missions and one or two other issues, we had a blast with Starlink: Battle for Atlas when it released back in October 2018.
“Ubisoft Toronto has crafted a gorgeous looking game, with a charming main campaign”, explained PSU’s Joe Apsey in our review. “If you’re looking for a good open-world space sim, then Starlink should be your next stop.”
