Fallen Earth: Open Beta Launches August 17

Fallen Earth developers announced today the Open Beta launch of their post-apocalyptic MMO next week, on Monday August 17, plus revealing the pre-order loot from Direct2Drive digital distribution:

FALLEN EARTH, LLC announced today that the post-apocalyptic massively multiplayer online (MMO) game of the same name will begin an Open Beta program August 17. Players who want to get an early glimpse of Fallen Earth on August 17 need only register on FilePlanet beginning Friday, August 14 at 1 p.m. ET (GMT-4).

Taking place in the Grand Canyon, Fallen Earth gives players the choice to rebuild the decaying world or participate in its destruction through use of the classless advancement system, real-time crafting and the seamless integration of first-person shooter and role-playing game mechanics.

"The Open Beta and Pre-Order programs give a much larger group of players the opportunity to experience Fallen Earth," says Jessica Orr, product manager for Fallen Earth. "We are excited that players want to get a jump on the game, and we are including a little something extra for being among the first to order."

Those who pre-order Fallen Earth at Direct2Drive get an exclusive in-game mount-the Wasteland Runner-which has four more points of defensive skills, 2500 more Stamina and six more pack slots than other horses. Additionally, pre-orders receive a guaranteed spot in the Open Beta and a five-day head start in the game, beginning September 4.

For all your launch questions, check this handy FAQ page, plus you can check the Direct2Drive page for pre-order package details, which will include the following:

WASTELAND RUNNER HORSE:
With a distinct spotted pattern and specially-designed head armor, the horse will be unique and recognizable. The Wasteland Runner is a requirement Level 10 horse, but has the stats of a Level 12 horse, focusing on additional range and cargo space. With four more points of defensive skills, 2500 more Stamina and six more pack slots than other horses, players who pre-order through Direct2Drive will have an edge in Fallen Earth.

EARLY GAME ACCESS:
Pre-Orders have reserved entry into Open Beta and early entry into the game on September 4.

We'll see you in the wastelands, stranger!
