Project
Entropia Phase II Beta Test Update Preparations
target late August start
MindArk AB, the
developer of the ground-breaking Project Entropia
virtual world, revealed today that preparations
for Phase II of its beta test are progressing
towards a probable starting date late this month.
As previously announced, approximately 500 new
testers will be added that time, joining the 50
who have been participating in the initial phase
since May.
At this time, our
plan is to send out notices to the selected
applicants by around the middle of this month,
most likely during the week of August 13 to
17," said MindArk Marketing Manager Patric
Sundstrom. "Naturally, we will have to allow
some time for their replies to reach us and for
distribution of the Beta II CDs, but we think
this can be done within a reasonable amount of
time. We don’t want to set an exact date
until we’re certain, but as of this moment,
our projection is that if all goes well, we will
be ready for Phase II to begin by the end of
August."
