Announced last night in a pre-launch press event hosted by Richard Garriott, NCSoft has announced that the sci-fi MMORPG Tabula Rasa’s launch date will be October 19. Customers that pre-order will get a 3 day head start, starting on October 16.

The NDA for the Tabula Rasa closed beta has also been lifted as of today.

If that wasn’t enough the official Tabula Rasa site has also been re-launched this morning with a slightly improved design.

  1. First!

    Great news. This sort of hit me by surprise as I had not been keeping up on the game’s progress. With plenty of time before WAR potentially launching, I may just have to give it a whirl.

    I can’t say I am dieing to play TR, but it doesn’t seem like a complete waste of time. Hopefully I can find some good p/reviews from beta testers.

  2. It’s actually a pretty good game. I’m not into Sci-Fi for the most part, but I’ve enjoyed it. Just not enough to buy it on release when Pirates and Hellgate are right around the corner.

    I’ll have a casually written preview up on my blog tomorrow I hope.

  3. Personally, I’m dying for a good Sci-Fi MMO that isn’t EVE online. I need legs and a blaster and some aliens to kill already!

  4. Caught the TR video on GameTrailers.com and wouldn’t mind giving this game a try.
    I’ve played EQ1, EQ2, and WoW. I’d like to try one where it wasn’t just auto attack w/ some abilities mixed in. This game looks like it has lots of potential.

  5. The TR videos can be a bit deceptive with how NCSoft likes to make everyone run around franticly. The game is not even close to a FPS. It’s still very much a MMO with control options that are similiar to a FPS.

    Even though you aim like a FPS (unless you enable target locking) it’s just a matter of getting your cursor over the enemy in order to click to fire.

    I should have a mini-review upon DungeonRun.com soon to go into more detail.

  6. I hope it lives up to the hype, looking forward to tying it.
    I like the mix of Sci-fi and Fantasy.
