Update 17 July 2024: With Alpha 3.24 still not Live it would appear 4.0 will also not be out until at least Q4 2024.
Update 15 May 2024: After a long road Alpha 4.0 is back on the official roadmap. Also see the 15 May Roadmap Roundup.
Update 13 May 2024: Adventure Beckons page mentions that the next patch after Alpha 3.23 will be 4.0 and will bring Pyro. To quote another "SC" game: "Hell, it's about time".
Update 6 April 2024: Alpha 3.23 still does not include the features required to bring Pyro. Estimated release date for Pyro is now Q4 2024 with Alpha 4.0. It is important to note the CIG roadmap is falling behind and is now again pretty much only showing what is coming immediately next. At SCFOCUS we provide ample speculation well beyond the next patch due. Additionally, completion of SC features from the features completion tracker still shows one third of SC core features missing. The next Star Citizen Progress Report is due this month.
Update 21 February 2024: Pyro for Alpha 3.21 turned out to be overly optimistic.
Update 21 October 2023: Alpha 4.0 might no longer be the same as originally planned. It appears the line of Alpha 3.2X.X patches can bring in the equivalent gameplay. For example, Alpha 3.20 brought the Hull-C and Alpha 3.21 might bring Pyro system and more. Stay tuned...
