Not now

But Serria was making a combat sim by the name of "Into The Fire"

However they canceled it back in 1999

there are no official B5 games I believe however there is a fan-made B5 game being created.  So far they have completed some training and prequel missions that you can download and play.  In the game you are a starfury pilot.  the site, if you are interested is www.ifh.firstones.com

Maybe not a computer game, but there is a board game by Agents of Gaming, called Babylon 5 Wars.  AoG was closely associated with ADB, and thus Bab5Wars bears some resemblance to SFB.  They had a huge line of miniatures; hundreds of ships for every race in the show.  (Even the non-aligned worlds.)

Sadly, I think AoG went out of business last year.  With Bab5 off the air for 5 years and no new movies etc coming down the pipe, the game finally fell below the threshold of profitability.  But you can still find the game and the miniatures and I guess that you will for a year or so.

Actually, about a year ago I remember seeing that AoG either had a following out or just didn't renew the licensing for it. They had to immediately recall all mini's and such from retailers and melt them down. Lot of places were having big B5 firesales.
