Closed Beta’s are all the rage these days, and Paradox Interactive have revealed that they will be holding one for the hotly anticipated King Arthur II: The Role-playing Wargame; their forthcoming real time strategy/level based game that is set for a release Q1 2012 for PC.

The Kings Court begins accepting applications from today for a limited number of spaces until Friday midday November 22nd. If you are deemed worthy you will receive a notification via email on Monday November 28th.

We recently reviewed the spin-off of the series and loved it, however we hear that the core game is far more impressive with huge real-time battles, intense boss fights, a band of heroes with extraordinary powers and the ability to employ unique war tactics and cast fantastic spells.

This is no sword in the stone tale, taking place long after peace is secured in Camelot with the aid of the Holy Grail, King Arthur’s legend is just beginning.

King Arthur II: The Role-playing Wargame will be available Q1 2012 for PC, if you want to be in with a chance of play-testing it before anyone else, apply to the beta now!
