One of the biggest announcements during Activision’s most recent conference call included an item that is on a lot of gamers’ minds–a StarCraft 2 beta.

Blizzard CEO Mike Morhaime stated that the closed beta would kick off this month, but didn’t really release a lot of details other than the that the beta would be available globally and allow thousands of players a chance to try the game.

StarCraft 2 is set to be released “mid-2010,” and surprisingly, will be made available to download from Battle.net upon its release.

Well, everyone, sit tight and twiddle your thumbs until then…

Blizzard Entertainment has confirmed in a press release today that the new World of Warcraft expansion, Wrath of the Lich King sold 2.8 million copies in its first 24 hours on sale, becoming the fastest selling PC game ever.

The past record holder… ironically… was the previous expansion, The Burning Crusade.

2We’re grateful for the incredible support that players around the world have continued to show for World of Warcraft,” said Blizzard boss Mike Morhaime.

“Wrath of the Lich King contains some of the best content we’ve created for the game so far, and we look forward to seeing even more players log in to experience it in the days ahead.”

A well deserved success for an epic series.
