Any chance for a gazetteer type product?

[Steve Geddes]

As I understand things, the plan is initially for a core rule book and then APs.

I'd really like a product I could hand out to players for some setting information, similar to the old gazetteer precursor to the campaign setting and ISWG. Any chance something like that could be possible? Or is something similar going to be somewhere in the core book?

Maybe a free Player's Guide for the AP, just like PFRPG's APs

It'd be great to see a player's guide for APs but i would also settle for a few pages in the AP that players can preread

The APs will have back matter articles, almost certainly including gazetteers for places like Absolom Station, new planets discovered and traveled to, etc. It shouldn't be hard to pass out or copy/paste sections from these to players.

I had presumed a player's guide for each AP would happen. Similarly that there will be some AP back matter which will be player friendly. Neither of those are what I'm asking about though.

Players could easily come from (or have knowledge of) areas not related to the AP. the Gazetteer was a fantastic book to give players to ground them in the setting and get them enthused (as is the Inner Sea Primer). I'd love it if something similar was available for Starfinder early in its release (like sometime in the first year or so).
