Outspark Announces Project Powder Closed Beta

Online game publisher Outspark has added to its MMOG offerings Project Powder, a new MMO snowboard racing title. The free-to-play game is currently in closed beta until July 8 and is scheduled to officially launch worldwide on August.

The final product will feature 33 courses, three game modes, multiplayer battles, and dozens of unlockable tricks. Players will also be able to purchase premium gear for their characters, such as new snowboards, clothing, and accessories.

Outspark is rewarding beta testers with in-game items and clothing by challenging them to reach level five and by hosting contests for different activities, such as screenshot taking and bug reporting. Players who can beat Project Powder's game masters in a race can also win real-world prizes, including music players and gift cards.
