This week, we announced that the open beta for Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning will begin on September 7th, 2008. Hundreds of thousands of fans will be able to enter the gritty fantasy world of WAR to experience the thrill of RvR combat before the game goes live on September 18th, 2008.

Open Beta Begins – Sunday, September 7, 2008The Open Beta will be level capped and content restricted. Players will be allowed to choose any of the game’s 20 unique careers and advance through rank 20. They will also be free to explore and battle across Tiers 1 and 2 of each army’s homeland. Please note that any characters created during the Open Beta will NOT carry over into the live game as they will be wiped from the servers

I just hope we are able to download the client before beta starts. With beta only lasting 7 days, it would really suck to have to spend 3 of them downloading. :-/

From Magnus:

When will the Open Beta start?
The EU Open Beta is scheduled to start September 7th. This is the date we have been working with for some time but naturally, anything can happen up until then.


Will we be able to download the Open Beta client in beforehand?
Yes. The client will be hosted from the EA Store from the first week of September.
