If you've been interested in seeing what the hype about Multitude's Fireteam is all about, now is your chance. The company has today issued a call for alpha testers for its game, where teams of 2-8 players join together in X-Com-like squads to participate in Crusader-style combat. Actual testing of Fireteam is set to begin later this month and should run through November.
Prospective testers must fill out a questionnaire at the company's web site. The alpha test is said to showcase three of the game's scenarios: capture the flag, team deathmatch, and gunball - "a sports-like combat game similar to football," the company says.
Fireteam is scheduled for launch in February 1998.
