Signups have begun for a closed PC beta of space action game Dreadnought, announced developer Yager at Gamescom 2015 last week.

Dreadnought gives players control of huge spacefaring capital ships to take part in large-scale competitive, co-op, and single-player combat.

Its various ships each have specialties, and can be customised with new weapons, abilities, perks, and cosmetic additions.

The Dreadnought beta launches in early 2016; for more information or to sign up, visit the game's official site.
