Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn beta registration now open

Square Enix are now accepting new applications for the closed beta of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.

"In preparation for the upcoming launch of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn on Windows PC and PlayStation 3, we are looking for players to take part in the beta test." states the publisher.

"Players who met the Legacy campaign requirements can participate in the beta test starting from phase 1 and are not required to apply. However, we ask players who wish to participate in the PlayStation 3 beta test to apply for it."

"If you applied to be a PlayStation 3 beta tester for FFXIV Version 1.0 and were selected to test the Windows version instead, you need not apply again to test the PS3 version - your original application will be reconsidered when we start selecting PS3 testers. However, if you wish to be considered as a Windows PC tester, we ask that you apply specifically for that."

In addition to accepting new applications for the closed beta, Square Enix has also released a prologue video for the game, which can be watched below.
