Wie einer offiziellen Pressemitteilung von Funcom zu entnehmen, ist jetzt die erste Beta-Phase zu Age of Conan gestartet. Auch wenn es sich zunächst nur um ein kleines Testteam handeln wird, welches durch eine auserlesene Gruppe von Spielern erweitert wird, so verspricht Funcom zeitgleich, das künftig weitere Plätze vergeben werden. Die erste Beta-Phase wird durch eine NDA gesichert, so dass keine Informationen nach Außen gegeben werden dürfen.
‘Age of Conan’ enters first phase of Beta testing
Durham, USA — June 30, 2006 – Funcom announces that ‘Age of Conan’ is entering the first phase of beta testing. The ‘Age of Conan’ Beta will evolve gradually with more and more external testers being added as the game moves closer to launch. The first stage of Beta will include people from Funcom’s Quality Assurance Department and selected, experienced Beta testers under NDA. During the fall more external testers will be included in the Beta. Beta signs-up will be announced broadly when Funcom is ready to process applications.
"We have worked hard on ‘Age of Conan’ for more than two years, and it’s great to see that our collective effort has led us to this point”, said Trond Arne Aas, CEO of Funcom. “The game already looks stunning and it’s a lot of fun to play. We are looking forward to include our community, partners and press once we move into the later stages of the Beta.”
‘Age of Conan’ is a Showcase title for Windows Vista, and the game recently won the “Best MMO of Show” E3 awards from IGN, Gamespot, Gamespy and Yahoo Games.
