Beta test Shattered Horizon

Finnish developers Futuremark Games Studio have announced that they need beta testers for an upcoming private beta test of Shattered Horizon. The game is played out in a scenario where the moon has been blown up and fragments of Earth's satellite line the sky. This sets up some corporate zero gravity shooting between mining companies.

Here is a quote from the press release regarding the beta test:

"Playing a multiplayer FPS in zero gravity offers gameplay possibilities that simply cannot be found in conventional shooters," said Antti Summala, Lead Game Designer at Futuremark Game Studios. "I invite every gamer looking for an FPS that offers something new and different to sign up for our beta test."

And some further information from the same source:

The beta is open to PC gamers from North America and Europe aged 18 and above. The minimum hardware requirements are Windows Vista, DirectX 10 graphics card, dual core processor, Steam account and a broadband Internet connection. No previous beta testing experience is necessary, just enthusiasm and time to play.
