Rock Hippo Productions announces the promised open beta of MicroVolts, their free-to-play online third-person shooter. Word is: "The open beta test features a variety of new content including one new game mode: Elimination, two new maps: Castle and Junk Yard, an achievement collection system and all-new customization items. In addition to the new content, a brand new website is also live and includes upgrades to the Club House providing players with a wide range of unique community features. As a special thank you to players who participated during the closed beta testing phase, they will receive a special accessory 'Gift of the Present' for their character. Players who were registered early were also lucky enough to receive a 'Main Beta Key' which can be redeemed for the special limited edition Rock Hippo costume."
