You heard right, now everyone take a deep breath. MechWarrior Online has entered Open Beta. This means you can sign up and play a near final version of the game today! It’s been about 10 years since the last MechWarrior game and fans have been champing at the bit for a new one ever since. MechWarrior Online has been in a Closed Beta for some time and has been widely embraced by most participants. Piranha Games has done a great job capturing the look and feel of the commanding BattleMechs, in addition to updating the game’s graphics to meet modern standards.
“After a brief delay, we are very excited to open up the game and look forward to continuing to expand the Inner Sphere to both new players and our loyal fans. They have offered critical and immediate feedback, helping make MechWarrior Online the game it is today,” said Russ Bullock, president of Piranha Games.
Bullock continued, “We’re excited to enter this phase of development with our publishing partner, Infinite Games Publishing. Working together we have laid the groundwork for a full pipeline of content between now and our official launch early next year, and beyond.”
Set in the year 3049 during the early stages of a massive interstellar war, MechWarrior Online puts you in command of a wide variety of devastatingly powerful Mechs. Customize each of your Mechs to suit your preferred battlefield role; upgrade systems, replace weapons and tweak armor with near endless options.
MechWarrior Online looks fantastic and best of all you can join the Open Beta for free. Head over to the game’s website at www.mwomercs.com to sign up and start playing today.
