Final Fantasy XIV Beta starts this weekend

After multiple worrying delays Square Enix has finally told fans the start date for the game's PC Beta test - and it's sooner than you might think - this Saturday, July 10th.

This is a closed beta right now, so if you haven't already been notified of your entry chances are you're not going to have a chance in this phase. Square Enix will be allowing more people into the Beta going forward, though.

We'll be in the Beta to experience it all, and we also went hands-on with the Beta at E3 2010 before Interviewing the game's Producer

Stick with us for the FF14 latest - we may even have some beta keys to give out! In the meantime, check out this trailer showing off the difference between the Alpha and Beta versions of the game!
