How to Get & Recruit All Crew in Citizen Sleeper 2

Mastering Crew Recruitment in Citizen Sleeper 2

This guide details how to recruit every crew member in Citizen Sleeper 2. Remember, while recruitment is usually straightforward (accepting their offer to join), success in certain Contracts or events can influence your ability to recruit specific characters. Also, be aware that you can lose crew members through bad luck or miss opportunities entirely.

Note: Due to the game's dynamic nature, please share any alternative recruitment methods you discover in the comments!

Initial Crew:

Serafin and Bliss are automatically added to your crew and are not tied to any achievements. While Serafin remains with your crew throughout the game, he's generally unavailable for Contracts.

Juni:

Juni is initially a temporary crew member encountered on Hexport. To recruit Juni permanently:

1. Complete the "Idle Minds" clock at Solheim Records.
2. A cutscene with Juni will trigger.
3. Complete the subsequent Contract and agree to let Juni rejoin your ship.

Recruiting Juni unlocks the "Data Archaeologist" achievement.

Yu-Jin:

Find Yu-Jin on Far Spindle after completing the "Getting Wracked" clock at Gaia's Gyre (requires ordering a Wrack four times, costing 16 Cryo). Complete Yu-Jin's Contract to permanently add him to your crew.

Recruiting Yu-Jin unlocks the "The Freelancer" achievement.

Luis:

During the "Aphelion Beacon" Contract, choosing to leave Yu-Jin behind opens the opportunity to recruit Luis.

Recruiting Luis unlocks the "Signalchaser" achievement.

Kadet:

Encounter Kadet on Far Spindle after completing the "Spindle Core" clock at the Spindle Core location. This unlocks a new drive and the Stripline Express location. Complete the tasks at Stripline Express, triggering a cutscene. Finally, travel to the Scatteryards to recruit Kadet.

Recruiting Kadet unlocks the "The Spindlejack" achievement.

Femi & Nia:

You can recruit either Femi or Nia, but not both. You'll meet Nia on Hexport and Femi on both Hexport and Floatsam. Completing Femi's Contract to ensure Nia's safety allows you to choose between them.

Recruiting Femi unlocks the "Big Brother" achievement. Recruiting Nia unlocks the "Little Sister" achievement.

Flint:

After your first visit to Olivera, you'll receive a Contract involving Flint's disappearance. Successfully completing the subsequent Contract (setting a trap and rescuing Flint) allows you to recruit him.

Recruiting Flint unlocks the "Fugitive" achievement.
