Fox have announced that Firefly Online will be released in 2014 but just how likely are we to get the game we've been waiting almost 7 years for?
Is Firefly Online destined to meet the same fate as the show? A grim comment may confirm fans' fears.
Man, this series can't catch a break. I swear if the show had aired on SciFi back in the day it would have run ten seasons...too bad it was doomed to be picked up by FOX who has zero idea how to handle science fiction
If you ask the average geek to make a list of their top five sci-fi shows, chances are that Firefly will be one of them. While the show was cruelly cancelled after just half a season, it has gone on to live in the hearts of its fans ever since. While there has been the occasional comic or book about the show, there have been no video games set in Joss Whedon's universe until now as the Firefly Online mmorpg is getting closer to its eventual release. MMO-Play does one last scan for Reavers before explaining why you should looking forward to Firefly Online.
Firefly Online boasts a large number of the original cast of Firefly as voice actors for their game. These include Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk. Create a captain, a ship, and a crew then explore the verse and try youe best to keep your ship in the sky. Browncoats unite as the game comes to PC, Mac, iOS, and Android with cross-platform play.
A Firefly online game for the mobile market? Well it's about gorram time. Hopefully it's good.
