Guild Wars 2: Open Beta Begins In April

Guild Wars 2 has ended up on a lot of Most Anticipated Games of 2012 lists. I won’t lie that I had my hopes up last year that perhaps ArenaNet would surprise us by launching the game in December.

A post on ArenaNet’s blog by President Mike O’Brien has confirmed the game for a 2012 release. Press invites for the game will be sent next month. Majority of fans who couldn’t get into the closed beta will get a chance to play the game when the open beta starts later this April. ArenaNet plans to feed off the reviews and feedback for the game before it goes gold.

If you’re interested in joining up for the beta then it’s recommended that you follow their Facebook page.
