Betawatch: Gloria Victis enters beta testing

Sure, all right.

Gloria Victis has entered the hallowed halls of beta! This might sound a little odd to you, as the game has been in testing for quite some time and made steady progress, but that was in early access alpha. This is early access beta. Very different. Look, we’re just happy when a game makes a point of marking these goalposts at this point.

Other beta news approaches steadily, as it does:

And thus do we close the book on betas for the week, with just our familiar list down below. Did something skip test phases without us catching it? Is there something missing from the list? Let us know down in the comments!

As always, we consider an MMO to be in open testing if it features free, public signups and will server wipe prior to launch. An MMO is marked in closed testing if it’s running a private test phase that cannot freely be accessed by the general public; it’s usually under NDA as well. Early access and crowdfunded MMOs whose tests we deem legitimate will be included. So-called “open beta” soft-launch MMOs with cash shops, no sign of launch in the west, or limited interest for our readers will not be listed; we also do not list expansions, with occasional exceptions.

Yes, MMO gamers, you too can perform the unpaid quality-control work otherwise known as game testing! Check out Massively Overpowered’s Betawatch every week for a run-down of MMOs that are still on the road to launch, even if they appear to have set up a permanent residence in a shed called early access.
