Fallen Earth Developers Update on Game Status

The last time we heard from MMO developer Fallen Earth they were letting us know that their self-titled MMO was "content complete" and with that announcement several months ago they've made another statement to their community about the position of the title now.

Their statement gives a little insight into the amount of work required on a current-generation MMO, with the world currently featuring "75,000+ text strings … 14,000+ unique characters/creatures … 143,000+ in game objects" all of which have required constant testing since they entered alpha phase.

Additionally, the company have developed the title's tutorial and character creation, with new UI features and fixes across the phase, which included 4,000 testers. The team "anticipates a move to closed beta testing later this spring."

"The team has done amazing work this past year and we are mere months away from showing off our baby to the world," concluded a Fallen Earth representative, "Thank you for your support and confidence in Fallen Earth. We look forward to working with you to make an awesome game."
