As if it wasn't assumed already by the progress we've seen in the game's development and all the talk of the trilogy, word from IGN PC is that the StarCraft 2 Beta Test is on the horizon. All we have to say: It's about time.
The report, coming from announcements during Activision Blizzard's fourth quarter financial call this Wednesday revealed that the beta will be set upon the new version of Battle.net, and as is the trend with Blizzard betas it will likely include multi-player content only.
Reports flying around online say the company will certainly release one game this year. It's quite likely to be StarCraft 2, after the company stated that the Terran Campaign will be out before Diablo III. Of course, there's still that unannounced MMO project in the works, but it hasn't even been revealed yet.
