The open beta for upcoming MMORPG Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning will begin in “the summer”, the game’s European spokesperson has revealed to VideoGamer.com.

Warhammer Online, which was recently delayed to “Fall 2008”, or August, September and October, has enjoyed at last count 500,000 beta applications from gamers in Europe and North America.

However, getting on the beta will be no easy feat. European publisher GOA has announced that pre-ordering the Collectors Edition, details of which were released this week, will grant you open beta access. Only 55,000 units will be made available across Europe though.

Look out for our hands-on preview next week.
