NCsoft: Closed beta for Guild Wars 2 in 2010, releases "year 2011"

The MMO sequel Guild Wars 2 won’t be releasing any time in 2010, though ”at least a closed beta” is expected by publisher NCsoft in 2010.

As for the full game, fans will have to wait for developer ArenaNet to finish ”probably sometime” in 2011. Blade & Soul not until then too.

”I believe there will be certain public events in the year 2010… at least a closed beta test for those titles. Commercialisation will be expected, at this point, probably sometime in the year 2011,” said NCsoft CFO Jaeho Lee during an investor call, reports Eurogamer.
