Test Drive Luxury for Free
If your current daily driver sounds like a dying washing machine every time you engage the fusion drive, this is your chance to see how the other half lives. Origin Jumpworks has taken over the IAE hall, and their entire lineup is available to rent for free in-game.
This 48-hour window is critical for anyone on the fence about the "luxury" tax usually associated with Origin. Whether you want to tour the system in a 400i or just zip around in an 85X, these rentals let you experience the high-end aesthetic before you commit your hard-earned UEC. It's a stark contrast to the utilitarian grit of Drake or the military rigidity of Aegis. You don't need to buy them to fly them right now—just grab the rental terminal at the expo.
What does the RSI Salvation bring to the table?
While Origin dominates the showroom floor with style, the RSI Salvation is making waves for utility. This ship is positioning itself as the go-to starter for the salvage career path. Historically, getting into industrial loops like scraping hulls required a significant investment in specialized ships like the Vulture.
The Salvation lowers that barrier to entry significantly. It offers new players a direct line to profitable salvage gameplay right out of the gate. If you're joining during this Free Fly period, renting an Origin ship might be fun for sightseeing, but checking out the Salvation could actually define how you earn your living in the verse moving forward. It's a smart move for players looking to build a steady credit flow rather than just looking pretty in screenshots.
