French telecom subsidiary GOA and Electronic Arts have announced that more than 200,000 players have signed on to beta test the upcoming MMORPG Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning. The game, which saw its retail debut recently delayed until 2008’s first quarter, is of course set within Games Workshop’s popular tabletop war game fantasy universe.
The companies began accepting applications from players in Europe and North America on May 30, and the 200,000 registration milestone was surpassed over the weekend, less than ten days after launch. Beta test applications are still [url=http://www.war-europe.com/]being accepted online[/url], by the way, just in case you didn’t get up early enough to catch the worm.
