The War Within Beta Servers are Now Available
The War Within Beta Servers are now up and available for testing!
As a reminder, players who pre-purchased the War Within Epic Edition should gain immediate access to the War Within Beta, so restart your Battle.net launcher to check for access.
Players selected to participate* will receive an email invitation directing them to download the game client directly from the Battle.net desktop app.
Players who purchase the Epic Edition may also receive email notifications. As always, please be aware of phishing attempts—if you’re unsure whether your invitation is legitimate, please log in to your Battle.net account to verify that there is a The War Within beta license attached (under Your Game Accounts).
