Is this game still coming out next year?

The last bit of news I can remember coming out for this game was all the way back in February.

Just wanted to know if anyone else had any other news on this game, or if I am the only person excited for it.

Still says release for within 2007 which we know to be wrong. Anyway, I wonder when they will update the site with any new news on this game.

99% of the time you can tell when a game is going to suck just by its name.

If the developers are so pathetically unimaginative that the best they could come up with for a game title is " Huxley" , then what do you expect of the game itself?

I' m calling it now, huxley = garbage.

The game Huxley is inspired by the " Brave New World" written by Aldous Huxley, hence the name.

Once again, I' m certainly not rooting against it, but until it can prove persistence I don' t think there is much to cry home about. We already had Planetside, what we need is Planetside that matters.

It' s an ambitious game, so it may not even see a release next year. I certainly hope it' s worth the wait.

Were they specific as to platform? (Crosses fingers for a 360 beta)

It' s probably the PC version as it' s coming out before the 360 version. It could be both but I would be surprised it it was only for the 360 version. I didn' t find anything saying one way or the other though.

Thanks a lot for the info Agent!!!!!

So, it is pretty safe to say that the PC version will be out a long time before the 360 version then. My guess would be a late summer early fall 2008 release for this game.

Awesome!!! Beta tests start on Sept 13 for the PC!!!!!

Still no word though on the 360 version, if we will get a closed beta in the near future. Anyways, this is great news.

" August 22, 2007. Global online entertainment company WEBZEN Inc. (www.webzen.com) announced today the dates of the much-anticipated first closed beta test for Huxley, the next-generation MMOFPS. The closed beta test will start on September 13.

One of the year´s most anticipated titles, Huxley is the cutting-edge, next-generation MMOFPS, fusing traditional FPS with the quest and character growth system of the MMORPG. Being developed as a truly global game title for Webzen, Huxley has already been creating a sensation in the markets in Europe and North America with rave reviews and a 35 million deal with a Chinese publisher.

After 999 lucky beta testers are selected from the official Huxley website beginning on August 28, the closed beta test will take place from September 13 for five days. For the first time ever, testers will get a chance to experience the city where the characters live and breath. They will also be treated to a variety of play modes such as team death match and radar domination, as well as the core systems, including the quest, not seen before in standard FPS games.

" With Huxley´s many innovative elements, gamers are in for a totally different experience," said Nam-Ju Kim, chief executive officer of Webzen, Inc. " Huxley is sure to challenge the existing genres with a new look and feel in multiple platforms. We´re extremely confident that this title will set a new standard in MMOFPS."

Meanwhile, Webzen has been conducting various testing and external network tests with a focus group since June to better gauge gamer preferences and evaluate the game´s stability. The first closed beta test is a part of a planned series of user tests."


Don' t forget to sign up on the 28th.
