The game will be separated into single player and multiplayer modes. Multiplayer modes include 8 on 8 teamplay or 16 player free for alls, capship Battles allowing two teams to launch an organized assault on each others capship while defending their own, Satellite – a Capture the Flag – and one on one duels. There is also a “Bearpit” where one on one duels can be watched from the sidelines by other players who can take potshots at the duelers.

The game is in devleopment at Gaia Industries, who’s last big title was Sex and the City: Virtual Voodoo, which was release for mobiles.
