MechWarrior Online has dropped a new blog detailing the extension of the Founders Program, giving access to the beta and describing a bit of what gamers can expect to find in the beta.

Gamers have been eager to know what the Founders Program will grant. We now know that we can expect beta access starting August 7th, Founder’s Tag, premium account, in-game currency, Founder’s Mechs for Elite and Legendary Founders, and access to spend in-game currency/credits.

Note that during the closed beta gamers will be refunded after each reset, allowing gamers a chance to experiment, but once open beta starts there will be no reset for gamers.

This is a beta so, as usual, expect bugs and report them as you find them.

With the extension of the Founders Program and no known cutoff date, now is a great time to jump in and master the raw power of a mech.

Leave a comment below and let us know if this has you excited to jump in and play now, or if you’ll be waiting until the very last moment?
