IRVINE, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- Aug. 26, 2004 -- Blizzard Entertainment(R) today announced plans to collaborate with FilePlanet on Blizzard's upcoming World of Warcraft(TM) stress test beta. This seven-day test will help Blizzard optimize World of Warcraft to deliver the best online-gaming experience possible when it launches later this year. Gamers in North America will have the opportunity to become one of over 100,000 people chosen to participate in the stress test and try out World of Warcraft before its release. Sign-ups for the World of Warcraft stress test beta are scheduled to take place exclusively on the FilePlanet Web site (www.FilePlanet.com).Practical partners, AT&T, now File Planet. They are gradually moving to make the launching of WOW huge, letting more and more people sign up in Betas here and in Europe. No wonder they have no time for Starcraft. I supect that after WOW they will revisit our game.
You can say many things about the developers at Blizzard, but there are two truths about them that have remained invariable, they make superb games and they are masters at creating captive markets.
