Microsoft Starlancer Enters Beta

Microsoft has sent word to testers that it is set to begin beta testing its upcoming game, Starlancer. According to Microsoft, "Starlancer is the gripping space combat game from Erin and Chris Roberts, creators of the popular Wing Commander and Privateer series of games. Starlancer combines the intense action of first person space combat with the drama and intrigue of a classic WWII air combat movie." Stalancer will feature a full 3-D graphics environment, as well as support multiplayer gaming via the MSN Gaming Zone. For more information, visit the Starlancer Web site, or check out the Starlancer test room on the Zone. Starlancer is set for release later this year.
