Star Citizen has seemingly been breaking crowdfunding records every hour on the hour, with it's most recent tally sitting at a very impressive $24 million. The finally quality of the game has yet to be determined, but some early in-engine footage of the crowdfunding darling indicates, that if nothing else, Star Citizen is going to be a game that really pushes the graphical boundaries.





Creator Chris Roberts is making sure that every donated dollar isn't wasted and is pushing the graphical edge of the game, offering as proof the most recent video of the game, which is available in UltraHD 4K resolution. Most people don't even have the necessary hardware to see what that even means, but for those that do, you're in for a treat.





“We’re pushing the limits with Star Citizen, and this commercial is our best example yet. It’s rendered 100% in-engine in real time at 4k resolution," Roberts said on the company's website. "We scale everything for the super high resolutions that will be the basis of tomorrow’s gaming experience; our assets are designed with high polycounts instead of having details baked into their textures. That’s a big part of why NVIDIA and AMD have been demoing Star Citizen at 4k! The next generation of CPUs and GPUs will make this kind of experience possible in gameplay, and we are building Star Citizen to be ready.”

Every PC generation has a benchmark game and it looks like Star Citizen is surely going to be the benchmark for this generation. Check out the video below for proof.
