27/06 Russian WoW Alpha and Forums

We are delighted to announce the World of Warcraft Russian Technical Alpha, commencing next week.

All our Russian-speaking players are invited to participate in this first phase of testing which focuses only on the technical aspects of the game. We would especially appreciate your reports regarding any connection and latency issues you may experience.

The second phase, the Localization Beta, will begin with patch 2.4.3 and will focus on the localization of World of Warcraft.

To coincide with the release of the Russian Technical Alpha, the Russian forums will also be launched, giving our players a place to discuss the functionality of the game in Russian. A list of known issues will be featured here for the launch of the first phase of testing.

You can read this announcement in Russian here:

The forums will go live next week and we look forward to seeing you there! :-)

Открытие форума и начало альфа-тестирования состоится на следующей неделе. До встречи! :-)

Q u o t e:
It doesn't seem to have been stated, but will there be Russian servers for the Russians to migrate to?

If and when any details are ready to go live, we'll let you know :-)
