The team behind Galaxy Online, the upcoming space-based free-to-play strategic MMO, has announced that people may now sign up for alpha keys in preparation for the testing which begins next week on 23 February.

MMOHut, "Galaxy Online is one of the more recent additions to the popular IGG gaming portal. IGG has been expanding its market rapidly, and now has ten games either released or in development.

Yes, now you too can take on all of the Chinese speaking players of a single game as one great nation of English speaking players. Except, of course, until the barrage of lolcats quotes and internet memes in the global faction channel drive you out of your mind.

So many MMOs, so little time...
MMO's are as easy to come by as water!
Why are they giving away keys when it's free? I don't get MMOs
