Where are the mechanic and technomancer?

[Ravingdork]

Just cracked open my Starfinder Player Core for the first time and I was quite surprised to see that there doesn't appear to be a mechanic or technomancer class any longer. What gives? Where are they? Starfinder Player Core 2?

They had a seperate playtest this spring. They'll be in Tech Core, which comes out sometime next year. It's a weird split, but tech and mech proved to be difficult to design, and thus needed more time in the oven.

Until the full version of the mechanic or technomancer classes comes out, the playtest versions are playable in organized play.

Though neither playtest class tied into any such stuff.

I am really enjoying the Rip Van Winkle aspect of SF2’s rollout, and guessing which are inexplicably real vs mildly amusing gimmicks.

Thanks everyone!
