For those who owned SoulStorm (currently $7.50 on Steam) or pre-ordered DOW2 on Steam, the beta is now available. For information on how to start playing, please read these instructions.

For everyone else, the beta will be available on January 27th with a countdown located here.

The game is a similar to a mixture of Company of Heroes and DOTA. With no base building and a focus on squad based combat, this is no Starcraft 2 - but it isn't meant to be that. Taken from a non-competitive viewpoint, the game is quite fun, and one cannot beat the price of free to try it! With great graphics and a fresh approach to the RTS genre, I do think it is worth a look.
