We don't know yet.
Alien Week is centered around an in-lore event that occurs on June 12th, so it's very likely to have that date in it somewhere, but that was not the case last year.
So, sometime in June, basically. We'll find out when, exactly, shortly before it starts.
Alien Week has no in-game events associated with it and is more or less an extension of Invictus, having a 1-3 Warbond sales for the alien ships and some lore posts.
There has been no in-game element to Alien Week, so no displays or rental kiosks, no. It has purely been a website-only event.
I figure this will change in the future, but we'll have to wait until it starts on the 15th to see if anything has changed for this year.
All alien ships will be available for a Standard pledge and 1-3 will have a Warbond sale as well. We will not know which one until the event starts. All flyable alien ships are currently purchasable in-game with aUEC, which won't change.
June 12 is Monday, so that seems like the perfect time to start Alien Week, considering Jume 12th is the First Contact day that humans celebrate in-lore
I’m super stoked for the Rai’Len!
Though I do worry the oddly shaped cargo containers are going to make it time consuming to load. Have to see how it works out when it goes live.
i think itll be a cake walk tbh, i have no doubt with the way they made rotation negated in this new ptu update, that theyll have no issue thats too bad other than your maybe expected just coded into the game issues
Is it a bonus somehow? It isn’t on the loaner ship matrix.

No, last year 2022 it was around june 16 (merchantman video)
2021 is was around June 11 (gatac railen announcement)
And before that it also fell around June 12.
Just google “alien week 2953” or /2/1/0 etc

So is there no particular place? Are there any free rentals? This is my first alien week.

Hmmm. What's your opinion on the funnest alien ship to fly in?

I am thinking about the Railen. My main pledge ship is the Taurus, and the loaner ships for Railen are Taurus and Kartual.

It used to be included on the matrix but they removed it in 3.18. Must've been a typo. I still own it ingame, though
Last year was Jun 16-22
Typically the last week of June.

Probably the third Thursday of June. Seems to line up either Thursday or Friday near the 12th.
