It’s been a long time coming, but after years of hard work, everyone here at Zipper Interactive is happy to announce that MAG, our 256-player shooting juggernaut – and our first PlayStation 3 game – has officially made it to stores all over North America and parts of Asia – with releases due out in Europe, Japan, and Korea later this week.
If you haven’t seen MAG in action for yourself, or you have seen it and you just like awesome trailers, then you owe it to yourself to watch our launch video below.
As great as it is, that trailer is just a sampling of the action, scale and insanity that MAG brings to the table – as scores of you are already finding out for yourselves, with roughly four new players joining the MAG universe every second!
On behalf of everyone here at Zipper Interactive, we’d sincerely like to thank everyone who has supported us leading up the release of MAG and who continue to do every time you log on. You have our gratitude; we couldn’t have done it without you.
For more on MAG, including all the latest info, storyline updates, status reports, check out MAG.com.
Isn’t Game Crazy suppose to be giving out Raven codes for pre-orders? Every time I call, they say it’s been cancelled. Is there way I can get a Raven code???
@33:
Then you’ve never played with people who have mics and actually fight as a team. There our plenty of people out there that do, but a lot that don’t also. And normally the fights aren’t right on the spawns, and if you don’t want to die instantly after spawning, select a spawn point where there’s less fighting. And the game got an 8 on Kotaku.
I personally love the game, has some great concepts and I love the chain of command. Looking forward to seeing some of you on the battlefield!

Madman, use your own advice and “for the love of god (and your own dignity), stop posting here.”
You asked Jeremy if the game had in-game music. It clearly does. And he BURNED you with his response.
So flitter off now little June Bug and spare us anymore of your idiotic rants.
To correct my post:
I meant Destructoid, not Kotaku.
i picked mag up today in hopes to see a improved game and i did.i was sadened also no custome controls why!is it possible zipper will add this feature in a patch.i lothe the placement of the melee button on all presets. why oh why in 2010 can we not map our own controls.other then that more guns please and team death match in dlc thankyou
To Jeremy or Jeff,
I was in attendance @ the event in Las Vegas. We were told the great news about receiving the game via mail. I read jeff’s answer to SteveLV702 about them being mailed on Friday and should arrive today. I have gotten my mail today and much to my dismay i found no MAG in my mailbox. Please help, I cancelled my reservation after the event and am really looking forward to receiving this once in a lifetime reward.
I guess I was wrong, I though in yesterdays post he said there was custom soundtracks, my bad
I hate the beta and will not buy or rent it in the future.
I’d love to know about MASS EFFECT 2 coming to PS3. Gamers buzzing about that game. 9.6 Metacritic score is worth playing even in other console.
am i missing something here or is this game been abandoned? only about 7000 people online right now?!??!?!
@24
I couldn’t agree more.
@60
The game hasn’t been out a full day yet. MW2 is the only game on PS3 that has a large online base anyway.
@Mr. Dunham
What does “a significant frame rate increase in larger player count games” mean? Has the game been upped to 60fps or maintains a solid 30fps?
does the game have killstreaks to bring in air support? sorry i missed all the buzz on the game.

What are the technical workings of Veteran Mode exactly?
Why is Madman even posting on MAG threads?
He made it clear he wasn’t buying it due to trophies.
Talk about attention mongering
Great work Zipper! My Collectors Edition will be mine tomorrow! See you on the battlefield as Valor!
DANG IT!! I can’t seem to connect to the SERVER!!! earlier this afternoon I was able to play a couple of games. I’ll tell you to those who are skeptic, THIS GAME IS THE BOMB!!!! WHYYYY MUST MAG PUNISH ME NOW?! LET ME CONNECT DANG IT!!
I got this game and it is great, but there is a huge problem. I left a comment on the blog Beta vs. Final Game, and i adressed this problem. The game kicks me out, signed me out, and it’s just unbearable. I’ve searched this up and i’ve heard that other people have had this problem, and i was wondering if anyone had the same problem. It’s a great game, but i can’t play it if this continues.
Holy smokes, your Jeremy Dunham from ign. I didnt know you left to work for zipper! So, how is it to work in the creative side of the gaming industry now?
Wish you luck with MAG’s sales. You got my money.
Looks like MAG cannot handle the traffic. Bought the game after work and have been trying to get on the server ever since. Based on my experiences with COD2 when it first came out, I image it will take a while to fix. It is frustrated seeing as I just spent $65 bucks on a game I cannot play. It better be a good game/experience when it does decide to work.
Sooo a amazing work guy the game is completly crazy for me, i think that put a step foward for fps style. And please try to put a demo out for poeple dont get a chance to try the beta, (like my brother his screen broke for the last week of the beta and he live to far away to try at my home ) tx and keep up the amazing work !!!!
Dammit the servers are down already. :(
Sorry \’bout that. We\’re implementing a server patch. The patch should be totally uploaded and the servers ready to go within the next hour.
