At last year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Brown Coats all over the ‘verse got excited by the announcement of Firefly Online, which planned to revive the cult-hit show as an online game. Firefly Online never made its planned summer release date, but at SDCC 2014 we at least have some exciting news: the original cast is returning to reprise their roles. There’s also a brand new trailer that provides the first look at actual gameplay, and it features a cameo from none other than Nathan Fillion, better known as Captain Malcom Reynolds from the show. Firefly Online is described as an “online strategic roleplaying game,” that will let you take control of your own ship and explore the galaxy. It’s in the works for Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS, from little known studio Spark Plug Games. Unfortunately, there’s no new details on the game will launch.
