Merry Christmas from Stellar Dawn Central! As a little Christmas present I’ve worked with Pliigi to bring you the Jagex Financial Report 2010-11 which is based on Jagex’s company accounts with some added graphs and charts.

Quote from Stellar Dawn VP

Ren — Thu, 08 Dec 2011 19:54:27 +0000

Rob S, Vice President of Stellar Dawn, was quoted in a Newzoo press release as stating the following:

“Sci-Fi games have been disproportionally under-represented historically in the MMO sector but this research reaffirms our confidence that the appetite for new and compelling Sci-Fi games is not only significant, but growing. To provide for this audience we have two F2P Sci-Fi MMO’s in development, Transformers Universe and Stellar Dawn, so the future is looking much brighter for Sci-Fi fans.”

See SDC forum thread.

Stellar Dawn release by September 2012?

Ren — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 12:01:38 +0000

According to a Jagex press release from the 9th of September 2011: “We have a hugely exciting twelve months ahead with the release of 8Realms, Transformers Universe TM and Stellar Dawn and very soon the noise from the Jagex corner will have people sitting up and listening”. Is this an announcement that SD will be out by September 2012, or just that they will be working on the release over the next 12 months? Are they referring to the release of the beta or the official launch? Discuss the press release on the forum thread.

Spaceone warns of SD beta scam e-mails

Ren — Wed, 03 Aug 2011 15:36:52 +0000

Jagex’s Spaceone (Mod Markg) has warned Stellar Dawn fans about SD scam e-mails:

Guys, just wanted you to be aware that there is a scam email going round with pictures lifted from the website and text informing players that they have been selected as a Beta tester. Clearly this stinks to high heaven and isn’t from Jagex. Hovering over the link shows that the address includes a link to STELARdawn.
