Wildstar Heads Into First Closed Beta Test
The MMO scene might be crowded, but there is always room for new titles with attractive art styles and game play friendly to casual and hardcore players alike. Carbine Studios is trying to find that delicate balance in their new sci-fi-meets-mysticism MMO, Wildstar. As mentioned in a preview we published last fall, the content is designed to be easily digested or wolfed down depending on player preference.
If this is your first introduction to the title, check out an episode of Respec Radio with Carbine's Mike Donatelli and Mike Geldard and the recent "What is Wildstar?" video below. If you like what you see, it's not too late to participate in the game's first closed beta test (already underway). In a departure from the standard weekend blitz, this event will last for a number of weeks, giving players a chance to check out the unique "path" system and other choices available on the planet of Nexus.
Head over to the beta sign up page for your chance to conquer the galactic frontier.
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.
