IntroductionDisclaimer: Stellar Dawn has been under development for several years now, so much of the content discussed in this guide may be out-of-date.What is Stellar Dawn? Everybody is talking about it, but nobody really seems to know what it will be like. This guide will attempt to answer at least a few of the questions that you may have about Stellar Dawn.
So what is Stellar Dawn?Stellar Dawn is the name of a Browser-Based, Science Fiction MMORPG currently under development by Jagex Ltd, the makers of RuneScape.
The release of Stellar Dawn was originally scheduled for the first quarter of 2009, however Stellar Dawn's release has now been postponed for an unknown period of time. It is now expected that Stellar Dawn will be be released early 2011, with a closed beta available some time before then. You can apply for the closed beta at
StellarDawn.com.
The Head of Stellar Dawn at Jagex announced "Forget about any dates you might have heard for its launch, we're not bound to them but to quality and excellence. The game will be released when we feel it has reached maturity, as simple as that."
What do we know about Stellar Dawn?Jagex have revealed very little about Stellar Dawn thus far, and the little that they have told us may well have changed or been removed. Nonetheless, here is some of what Jagex has let slip over the past few years.
Stellar Dawn will be a Sci-Fi set in the future, and aimed at a much older audience than Runescape is. You will be able to play Stellar Dawn as one of four different species, with gameplay revolving around the tension between these races. Game play will be story-driven, and is likely to have a cold-war theme between the four different species.
The first three of these species have been confirmed to be Humans,
Pliigi and Robot/Mechs. The fourh Stellar Dawn Race is rumoured to be Mortiga, however this rumour is based only upon some of the concept art that we have seen.
Jagex have claimed that Stellar Dawn will be completely different to any other MMORPG currently in existence. Stellar Dawn is rumoured to contain player-made vehicles and perhaps even player-made space ships, and the entire game will be planet based.
