There's a new Arena Commander Weekly Report on the Roberts Space Industries website revealing a May 29th release date for the Arena Commander module for Star Citizen, RSI's upcoming space combat game (thanks 88fingers). This will be available to all backers of the game, and will kick off the first multiplayer testing of the game. There's a complete tentative schedule of what will lead up to what's planned as version 0.8 as well as what will go into the versions 0.9 and 1.0 to follow. Here's the overview:

Let me begin with the information you most want to hear: we intend to launch Arena Commander in two weeks, on May 29th.The goal is that every backer will have access to the single player “Free Flight” and “Vanduul Swarm” games modes on this day, and the very first batch of multiplayer testers will get access to the game’s multiplayer game modes. We will scale up the multiplayer as quickly as possible starting on that date, increasing the number of players as it is stable and stopping to fix bugs where needed.
