Squadron 42, for those that may have forgotten, is the single-player portion of Star Citizen. The bit of the game where millions have been spent on motion capture, Hollywood actors, and special effects. Fans of Wing Commander, Chris Roberts' '90s space-combat series, will no doubt be pleased to know that Mark Hamill is part of Squadron 42. No real surprise there. In fact this teaser video, could just as easily double as a glimpse at Wing Commander 6: Kilrathi Rising.

It's pretty short and sweet.


We don't know much about Mark Hamill's character other than he'll be playing a grizzled veteran by the name of Lt. Commander Steve "Old Man" Colton. But then again going by the standard set by the Wing Commander series, that could be the entire character description. Squadron 42 is expected to ship in 2016.
