Cryptic Studios has announced that players can now sign up for a chance to participate in the first closed beta for Champions Online, an action-focused MMO scheduled for release in spring 2009 for PC and Xbox 360.

“This closed beta is an exciting step in the evolution of Champions Online,” said Jack Emmert, chief creative officer for Cryptic Studios. “All of us here in the Cryptic offices have been playing the game for a while now, and we’re excited to invite others in to have as much fun with Champions Online as we’ve been having internally.”

This PC specific beta begins in mid-November 2008 and players can sign up by visiting www.champions-online.com.

In Champions Online players have the power to totally customise their hero while they explore a vast comic book universe. Choose your hero’s name, back story, costume, powers and abilities as well as design their own personal nemesis and his/her back story.
