Piranha Games today revealed a galactic flight-based MMORPG set in a persistent, distant sector of the galaxy where industry, science and combat shape humanity’s interstellar progression, called Transverse.
Transverse aims to offer incredibly detailed ship and station construction, massive solar-system-wide player events and real-time, physics-based combat. In addition, a fluctuating, real-time economy fueled by industry will drive trade in a dynamic resource ecosystem, and player-generated contracts and missions can shift the balance of power at any given moment.
Basically, this sounds a lot like Star Citizen, doesn’t it? Oh well. Guess space combat MMORPGs are the new cool toys these days.
Ironically, Piranha Games has launched a crowd-funding campaign similar to the one of Star Citizen. I mean… seriously… that’s hilarious.
Transverse is powered by Unreal Engine 4 and is currently planned for a 2015 release.
Enjoy and here is hoping that Piranha Games will keep supporting MechWarrior Online.

While he is a die-hard PC gamer, his gaming roots can be found on consoles. John loved – and still does – the 16-bit consoles, and considers SNES to be one of the best consoles. Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2. John has also written a higher degree thesis on the “The Evolution of PC graphics cards.”
