NCsoft Announces Closed Beta Testing for Tabula Rasa

NCsoft Europe announces that closed beta testing is beginning for the company's online computer game, Richard Garriott's Tabula Rasa. The start of closed beta marks the game's final development stages as Tabula Rasa approaches a Q3 launch across Europe and North America.

Richard Garriott's Tabula Rasa is a massively multiplayer online (MMO) role playing PC game that places players in an epic sci-fi story where they will be challenged by dynamic and fast-paced adventures on alien worlds.

Garriott's signature creative vision introduces several fresh features to the MMO genre, such as a character cloning system, role-playing on the battlefield and a mystical "Logos" language and powers system. Over the years, players have come to expect innovative features such as these from a Richard Garriott title.

Garriott is best known for creating the best-selling Ultima computer game series, including the first commercially successful MMO game, Ultima Online. In 2006, he was presented with two industry honors for his work in the games industry. That year Garriott was inducted into the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences Hall of Fame and later was presented the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Game Developers Choice Awards.
