StarCraft II Beta Extended One Week
Folks that were hoping to show appreciation for Army veterans this Memorial Day by playing as Terran marines in the StarCraft II beta are in luck. The beta, which was originally slated to end on May 31, is being extended by one week.
In a recent update to their StarCraft II community website, Blizzard said that the beta is being extended to June 7 to “prepare for the final phase of the beta testing.” After that the team will buckle down and perfect its product ramping up to the game’s official July 27 release date.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
