The World of Warcraft®: Mists of Pandaria™ beta test has begun! Over the course of the test, we’ll be inviting Annual Pass holders, press, fansites, friends and family, and opt-in beta testers to participate. This first phase of the beta focuses on the 1-10 starting experience for new Pandaren. High-level content as well as template characters will become available in future beta updates, but you can still copy over your own high level characters now if you’d like to test the new talent system.


So, who's going to play? My girlfriend has an annual pass and will definately get to see the beta. I was thinking of getting an annual pass myself, as I'm not going to stop playing WoW even for Diablo III. I must say I didn't expect the beta to start so soon after the announcement of Diablo III's release date...
