Bounty Hounds Online, an upcoming sci-fi action MMO, is going to give you a choice how you want it packaged: paper or plastic. Er, we mean "boxed or digital." The retail box will be released under the name Bounty Hounds Online Pro and will arrive in European shops this October. For the price of 10 Euros, players will get a leg up on this free-to-play title with exclusive content and in-game currency. Multiple language versions are planned for the box release as well.
The game puts players in the role of mercenaries tasked with cleaning up an intergalactic war on a planet known as Clear Sky. You'll get to choose between five classes and four military companies before heading into the battle, not to mention the awesome-sounding CTU transformable combat pets.
Recently out of closed beta, Bounty Hounds Online is slated for open beta on August 2nd. You can sign up by visiting the official website.

Any game that skips over unique items for in game currency as a boxed edition bonus turns me off.

@Pingles I've been following the game for a while, actually. and sent massively more than one email about covering it.
it actually looks pretty solid as far as I've seen, and it's based of an existing ip, the original bounty hounds was on psp.
We really need more scifi mmos, so I've got high hopes :D

Well, now I gotta look at this game since it is Sci-Fi.

@Space Cobra Totally why it grabbed my attention. We're sorely lacking scifi mmorpg compared to all the generic fantasy dross.
Game is pretty unique too, everyone gets a robotic animal pet that fights with you, which can transform into a bipedal robot for more offensive power.
hoping it'll keep my interest, at least until PSO2

@Pingles From what I've seen and heard, it's open world with mobs roaming around etc etc.

Guy talks a LOT, but skip on and he'll load up a character out in the wilds, and show off a very cool robot dinosaur(!!!).
Hope that helps :D
