What SQ42 means
Checked 2026-10-17
SQ42 is the short name for Squadron 42. If the rest of the result looks like a boat, a flight, or a different game, you are in the wrong place.
Here SQ42 refers only to the Cloud Imperium game. Similar search terms can lead to unrelated games, aircraft units, boats or flight numbers. The cited game references do not establish what "SQ42 Corvus" means, so this page leaves it unresolved.
Which SQ42
Other spellings of the game show up in search: Squadron42 as one word, 42中队 in Chinese, and 스쿼드론 42 in Korean. Those are the same campaign. Language pages on this site cover the local wording. The Steam app id is still 4045720.
