WAR Open Beta Begins September 7th, 2008

Now you can experience the glory of battle and the thrill of WAR before the game goes live! Players can get into the WAR open beta by pre-ordering Warhammer Online from select retail partners. Participants of the closed beta will automatically be granted open beta access.

Pre-Order Customers
  1. Visit the new Mythic Account Management website to create your Warhammer Online game account. When prompted, enter your Open Beta code. If you have previously entered your Open Beta code in the Beta Center, you will need to enter it again when you create your WAR game account at the new account management site.
  2. Download the open beta client from Fileplanet.com. You will be required to create a free FilePlanet account and input your open beta pre-order code to access the file.
Closed Beta Participants
  1. If you are currently in the WAR closed beta, you will automatically be granted access to the open beta. Simply continue to patch your client and you’ll be ready to play.

The Open Beta will be level capped and content restricted. You will be allowed to choose any of the game’s 20 unique careers and advance through rank 20. You will also be free to explore and battle across Tiers 1 and 2 of each army’s homeland. Please note that any characters created during the Open Beta will NOT carry over into the live game as they will be wiped from the servers.
