According to DualShockers, Star Citizen's alpha comes with features like dogfighting and some of its persistent universe. It's not everything the game has to offer, but it should give you a taste.

Star Citizen remains officially unreleased almost four years after its crowdfunding campaign first began, though modular components of it have been offered to the public, including this alpha. One backer recently received a refund after complaining to California's Attorney General.

In other news, the game's single-player standalone game, Squadron 42, has been delayed out of 2016.
