According to Irrational Games's Jonathan Chey (project manager) the eagerly awaited Freedom Force has gone gold! He had the following to say on their message board :

"Good news everyone, Freedom Force has "gone gold", i.e. been approved for manufacturing! This means that it will be in stores soon. I don't have the final on-shelf date but I believe it will still be around the last in week of March. It's been a long road but the results are worth it. The game is cool and I think you will all have a lot of fun with it. We are working on a demo which should be available before the game hits the shelves, i.e. real soon now. Stay tuned for further info."
