Earlier today at a London press preview, Sony Online Entertainment announced that its family-friendly MMO Free Realms will be releasing in early April. In addition, this free-to-play game is said to hit the beta stage within a couple of weeks from now, according to Associate Art Director Sebastian Strzalkowski.

The April release will be strictly for the PC, although there will also be a release in the third quarter of this year for Sony's PlayStation 3. To make up for the delay, SOE promises exclusive content just for the PS3. Be sure to check out our exclusive coverage of Free Realms and look for more info as we inch closer to April's launch.

I wish there was Mac support. :(

And the pedophiles begin their preparations... >.>

I know the game's targeting people about ten years younger than me, but I've heard a lot of good buzz about the game, and I'm interested in seeing how it turns out. If it has some depth, it could be a pretty solid title. If not, it really will only appeal to the tweens.

Agree with you 100%.

Wow, I didn't expect to see this until September or so.

I'm really interested to see how it plays.

Yes! I'm so excited!

I will never allow any program from Sony to run on my computers. If they tried to put in Rootkits and spy programs with their CDs, who knows what they are trying to do when you install their software?

Christ... not even Microsoft releases games on PC before Xbox.. and they basically run the platform...

SOE are so damned stupid it blows my mind.

Sony should pawn them off to EA or Square Enix. They're worthless as a first party studio.. they operate as a third party anyway.
