MechWarrior Online, a free-to-play, officially licensed action MMO based on the long-running mech-simulation series, has been announced if you didn’t already know.

Set in the year 3049 during the early stages of a massive interstellar war, MechWarrior Online puts you in command of the most powerful war machine to ever walk the field of battle, the mighty BattleMech. Command your Mech and customize it to suit your battlefield role; upgrade systems, replace weapons, and tweak armor with endless options. MechWarrior Online lets players command at will: go head-to-head online alone or with friends in high-octane Conquest and VS modes. Band together and form your own Mercenary Corp, invite friends and battle other player-made Merc Corps for prestige and power. Pledge your allegiance to one of the five great houses and fight for control of precious Inner Sphere planets.

You will play a key role in a dynamic and ever-changing universe where player exploits impact the world around you and daily story updates and frequent content additions create epic changes to the Inner Sphere universe and its many inhabitants. MechWarrior Online delivers a rich online experience, rewarding everything a player does with experience points, C-Bills, unlocks, and recognition. Upgrade skills and refine your role in gameplay using an all-new leveling system, and up-to-the minute detailed player statistics allow you to compare, track and share your progress with other players.

Ahead of the game’s full release (likely this summer, with early-adopters getting pre-game access on July 17th), Piranha Games and Infinite Game Publishing have announced the Operation: Inception Program targeted towards early adopters, which will give them a number of perks upon the early pre-release of the game this July. Dubbed the “MechWarrior Online Founder’s Program”, it will go on sale starting June 19th and run through July 17th, allowing players to purchase whichever tier they desire in order to get-in on the action.
