Blizzard Entertainment har nu udsendt de første officielle signaler, som varsler den kommende betatest af Wrath of The Lich King-udvidelsen. Amerikanske og europæiske World of Warcraft-spillere, bør kigge på deres konto-side, hvor der nu er tilføjet en “beta opt-in mulighed”. Tilvælger man den, kommer man med i puljen over de heldige som får lov at deltage i den endnu ikke annoncerede betatest. Blizzard har, vanen tro, ikke villet spytte ud med datoer og den slags, men betatesten vil dog indfinde sig med tiden.

Today we opened the Wrath of the Lich King Beta Opt-In program, which gives players a chance to win an invitation to the upcoming Wrath of the Lich King beta. For The Burning Crusade beta, we randomly invited players from the entire World of Warcraft community. With the Opt-In, our goal is to strengthen the beta-testing process by inviting only those players who have expressed active interest in participating.

Keep in mind that opting in doesn’t guarantee you’ll be selected for the beta. And players who’ve previously been promised beta access through a promotion or contest (such as by purchasing the Dell XPS M1730 World of Warcraft Edition notebook) don’t need to worry — you’ll still be entered into the beta automatically when the time comes.
