Wing Commander project
In April 2011 a news article quoted Chris Roberts of Bl!nk Media International as wanting to make a video game that would take years to build, require over 30 million dollars and over 100 hires, and saying that there'd be multiple games. It also listed Mark Hamill, Malcolm McDowell, Tom Wilson, John Rhys-Davies as scheduled project actors.
In May 2011 another news article mentions a multiyear Wing Commander video game project by Chris Roberts.
In August 2011, Chris Roberts said that he definitely wants to do another WIng Commander, for which he has a very specific vision, that he feels re-energized, and that he thinks he can come back.[2]
The pre-production of Star Citizen started towards the end of 2011, which aligns with the time Chris Roberts left Bl!nk Media.[1][3][4][5]
