In *Citizen Sleeper 2*, assembling your crew is crucial for successfully completing various contracts. This guide will detail the steps to recruit every crew member in the game. While most recruitment processes are straightforward—typically, you just need to accept an offer to join—there are instances where your performance in Contracts or other events can influence whether you recruit or lose a potential crew member. Remember, it's possible to miss out on characters or lose them due to poor outcomes or choices.

How to Get Every Crew Member in Citizen Sleeper 2
How to Get Serafin and Bliss
The first two crew members you'll encounter are Serafin and Bliss. Serafin remains with your crew throughout the game but is generally unavailable for Contracts. Both Serafin and Bliss join your team automatically without any associated achievements.
How to Get Juni
You'll meet Juni as a temporary crew member on Hexport. Although Juni leaves temporarily, you can recruit them permanently by heading to Helion Gate. After completing the Idle Minds clock at Solheim Records, a cutscene with Juni will trigger. Finish the subsequent Contract and agree to let Juni rejoin your ship to recruit them permanently.
Recruiting Juni unlocks the Data Archaeologist achievement.
How to Get Yu-Jin
You'll find Yu-Jin on Far Spindle after completing the Getting Wracked clock at Gaia’s Gyre. To achieve this, select "Order a Wrack" four times, costing you a total of 16 Cryo. After this, you'll have the chance to talk to Yu-Jin and receive a Contract from him. Upon completing the Contract, you can recruit Yu-Jin permanently.
Recruiting Yu-Jin unlocks the The Freelancer achievement.
How to Get Luis
During the Aphelion Beacon Contract, you'll have the option to leave Yu-Jin behind. Choosing to do so allows you to recruit Luis.
Recruiting Luis unlocks the Signalchaser achievement.
How to Get Kadet
You'll first encounter Kadet on Far Spindle after completing the Spindle Core clock at the Spindle Core location. This will unlock a new drive and the Stripline Express location. After the ensuing cutscene, complete the new options available at Stripline Express. Another cutscene will follow, after which you should head to the Scatteryards in a different part of The Belt to recruit Kadet.
Recruiting Kadet unlocks the The Spindlejack achievement.
How to Get Femi & Nia
Recruiting Femi and Nia involves similar steps, but you can only choose one. You'll initially work with Nia on Hexport, where you'll also meet Femi. Later, on Floatsam, Femi will persuade you to take a Contract to ensure Nia's safety. Upon completing this Contract, you'll have the choice between recruiting Femi or Nia.
Recruiting Femi unlocks the Big Brother achievement, while recruiting Nia unlocks the Little Sister achievement.
How to Get Flint
After your first visit to Olivera, you'll receive a Contract to investigate the disappearance of Flint and another character. This will lead to another Contract where you'll need to act quickly to set a trap for an enemy. Follow Xander to rescue Flint during this Contract, and upon success, you'll have the option to bring Flint aboard.
Recruiting Flint unlocks the Fugitive achievement.
That's how you can recruit every crew member in *Citizen Sleeper 2*. Keep in mind the dynamic nature of the game and the potential for different outcomes based on your choices and performance.
