WOW Beta Sign-ups
In the event that you are selected to beta test World of Warcraft (the "Product"), your use of the Product will be subject to a Beta Test License Agreement that you must agree to before you can install the World of Warcraft Beta. Additionally, you will be required to accept the World of Warcraft Terms of Service each time you log-on to play the World of Warcraft Beta.
Participants will be selected on a random basis, so you will have the same chance of getting into the World of Warcraft Beta regardless of when you decide to sign up during the one (1) week application period. We are not taking applications on a "first-come, first-serve basis."
Please note that only one entry per household is permitted. Multiple applications will be disqualified.
The World of Warcraft Beta test has the following requirements:
A 56K or higher modem with an internet connection.
You must have a valid e-mail address (yahoo & hotmail addresses will not be accepted).
Windows System/OS:
800 Mhz or higher CPU.
256 Megabytes or more of RAM.
Geforce 2 Graphics Card or better.
3 Gigabytes or more of available hard drive space.
DirectX® 9.0 or above.
Mac System/OS:
1.0 GHz or higher, G4 or G5 processor.
512 Megabytes RAM or higher. DDR RAM recommended.
ATI or NVIDIA video hardware with 64 MB VRAM or more.
3 Gigabytes or more of available hard drive space.
MacOS X 10.3 ("Panther") or better
In addition, Windows users should note that you will be prompted to download an ActiveX file during the registration process that will provide Blizzard with the system configuration of the computer from which you apply and intend to play the World of Warcraft beta. Specifically, Blizzard will only be recording CPU, RAM, operating system, video card, and sound card information from your computer. Your system configuration data will be linked with your personal registration data. The reason we are collecting this information is to make sure that we select users with a wide variety of hardware configurations that meet the minimum requirements to participate in the Beta test. By submitting your application, you hereby acknowledge that the aforementioned data will be collected and grant Blizzard permission to collect such data.
If you have any questions or concerns about this procedure, please email us at wowsupport@blizzard.com.
