Section 8™ publisher SouthPeak Games, along with developer TimeGate Studios, is set to break new ground on the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment platform from Microsoft by supporting X Server functionality, an option where players can run their own dedicated servers using a Windows®-based PC. An X Server can handle up to 32 players at once, resulting in one of the largest multiplayer games currently available on the Xbox 360. The X server software will be distributed free of charge* upon Section 8’s launch. Meanwhile, PC gamers can also run dedicated servers for the PC version of the game allowing up to 40 simultaneous players. More information and availability of the X Server and PC Server software will be available at launch on www.joinsection8.com.
SouthPeak Games also announced today that its upcoming sci-fi first person shooter, Section 8, is now in open beta. This means anyone, anywhere, can download the latest beta build. Developed by TimeGate Studios, Section 8 is burning-in to stores September 1, so this is a great opportunity for gamers to get their powered armor suits on for a peek at what promises to be the most intense shooter coming out this year.
More information about the open beta and sign-up details and availability of the X Server and PC Server software can be found at www.joinsection8.com.
