Gods & Heroes Open Beta Begins

In a press release today, Heatwave Interactive announced that Open Beta for Gods & Heroes: Rome Rising has officially gone live.  The Gods & Heroes development team recently ended Closed Beta a little more than a week ago, and according to Heatwave Executive Producer and CEO Anthony Castoro, “Now that we’re in the final phase of the game development and testing, we’re looking forward to opening the Gods & Heroes experience to a broader audience.”

Players interested in participating in the Open Beta can register now and play through June 12, 2011.  Here are more details from the press release:

The Gods & Heroes: Rome Rising open beta lets players experience the game’s massive world filled with ancient lands, dramatic combat and mythological creatures two weeks before the game ships. Open Beta testers will be able to play four character classes, a revised new player experience, personal estates, a minion system, an updated combat system and 14 levels of gameplay. Players who pre-order the game during the Open Beta, can then join the Head Start program and start playing the full game a week before the box hits the shelves.

Gods & Heroes: Rome Rising is a comprehensive MMORPG where players take on the role of a Demigod seeking revenge on an old enemy.  The release is slated for June 21, 2011.
