Paradox Interactive has announced in a press release that the publisher and developer Neocore Games are looking for gamers to engage in a closed beta test of their upcoming title King Arthur II. Players who are interested in participating in the beta will have to register here by the 22nd November. After that date, beta applications will no longer be accepted.
King Arthur II takes place long after young Arthur pulled the enchanted sword out of the stone, united the war-torn land of Britannia, gathered the Knights of the Round Table and secured peace in Camelot aided by the might of the Holy Grail. King Arthur II takes place right after the former game’s ending, where it becomes apparent there is no “Happily Ever After.”
