Dreadnought Closed Beta Starting Soon

Feel like destroying some giant spaceships? Well the time is almost upon us that you will be able to do such a thing. With the beta of Dreadnought starting very soon, the free-to-play tactical space shooter will be available for those enrolled as of the 29th of April. If you're not already enrolled, then you can get yourself a spot by buying one of two founder's packs, available to buy now.

In addition to guaranteed access to the closed beta, the £6.99 /$9.99/ €9.99 Hunter Pack delivers one unique Medium Dreadnought Hero Ship - the Morningstar - plus 500 Grey Box Points (GP), which can be used to buy ship emblems, decals and more. It also includes seven days of Elite Status, granting more experience and Fleet Points (FP) per match, when the game launches later this year. Finally, the package includes an exclusive Hunter Pack ship decal, emblem and coating, plus two Fleet Recruitment Packs, which let owners give two friends guaranteed access to the closed beta, the Morningstar Hero Ship, 250 GP and a Fleet Recruitment Pack ship decal and emblem.

The Mercenary Pack ups the ante with five Hero Ships - the aforementioned Morningstar (Medium Dreadnought), Outis (Medium Corvette), Silesia (Light Artillery Cruiser), Huscarl (Heavy Destroyer) and Kali (Heavy Tactical Cruiser) - plus 3,000 GP and 30 days of Elite Status at official game launch. It also grants four Fleet Recruitment Packs and an exclusive Mercenary Pack ship decal, emblem and coating, all for £27.99/$39.99/€39.99.
