Counter: Side fans in North America will be able to try out the game in an upcoming closed beta. This is part of the game’s official global launch, finally, after most have likely been playing on the SEA servers if not the original Korean or the recent Japanese release.
The announcement regarding the closed beta is short and simple:
Everyone get on board the Counterside CBT ship, because we’re departing real soon!
Mark the dates in your calendar:
Starts: 12 April (Tue) 19:00 (UTC-5)
Ends: 19 April (Tue) 02:00 (UTC-5)
Any player from the USA, Canada or Mexico is welcome to play.
We hope our CEOs in the West are as excited as we are for this new adventure!
As for other players in Europe, South America, and other parts of the globe, don’t despair!
The official Counterside game will also be coming to you soon!
See you in no time!
As mentioned, this Counter: Side closed beta session is meant for North America, with the notice assuring Europe, South America and everywhere else to be getting the game soon. Whether this indicates they will be getting their individual closed betas or a launch will be coming soon, we’ll have to wait and see.
With the limited regional closed beta, it seems possible that players will be separated by servers even if they’re playing on the global client. More details should be available on that in time, so don’t take this as gospel.
