CitiesXL Moving to Next Phase of Beta
CitiesXL is a game that is a bit of a wild card amongst the up and coming games for the next year or so. We know it is a city builder and we know it will have MMO-elements but information otherwise hasn't been overly easy to come by.
That might change soon for some lucky folks as MMORPG.com is reporting that the current phase of beta is coming to a close and the next one is right around the corner.
