We've got some more Origins of Malu news today courtesy of the team at Burning Dog Media. A new press release on the sandbox MMORPG's official website is touting a partnership with Dell and Alienware that will generate awareness of the sci-fi title as it heads into its beta phase and eyes a 2012 launch. The release also mentions cross-platform functionality, and though it doesn't elaborate, we contacted lead developer Michael Dunham for clarification.
As it turns out, the Origins team is aiming for both PC and Mac clients, and some sort of mobile/tablet functionality is in the works as well.
We'll keep you up to date on that as we learn more, and in the meantime you can head to the Origins website to read up on the game. Before you go, be sure and check out Massively's exclusive interview with the dev team.

Ah..."Cross-platform" seems to just be Windows/Mac/Mobile, so not too much crossing of platforms as taking something for the PC onto other PC and related devices. I wonder if the Mobile thing will be a lite-version or something interconnected through an app (like Wiz101 just announced)?

Interesting but it's not on my radar. I will have to see more of the game.
