Starcraft II closed beta starts

Hopefully it cements a 2010 release
Bengt Lemne 18 February 2010

After numerous delays the Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty closed beta test is finally here. The beta test will not only help Blizzard balance the multiplayer component, but will also give players a first peak of the new and improved battle.net service. Invitations have been sent out (yay, we got one!), but you can sign up on battle.net for a chance to participate yourself.

"Gathering concentrated feedback from our players is an important step for us as we head into the final stretch of development for StarCraft II and the new Battle.net service," said Mike Morhaime, CEO and cofounder of Blizzard Entertainment. "We look forward to having our players' help in polishing the overall experience and preparing for launch."
