Last call for Aion closed beta

The sixth, and final, closed beta event for Aion starts Friday.

While players won't see a level increase from the last event (characters are capped at level 30), the game's developers are promising to deliver some story-driven, in-game events that will serve as a teaser for some of the content coming up in a future update that they're calling "massive".

The beta event starts on Friday, August 14th at noon PT (8 p.m. BST, 9 p.m. CEST) and ends on Monday. The beta forums open 2 hours earlier.

In the meantime, Gamasutra has posted a Q&A with NCSoft's corporate relations director Jaesung Lee about Aion's westward expansion, tackling the high-end MMO market, and meeting the ever-increasing expectations of gamers.
