Guild Wars 2 closed beta starting Friday

The announcement comes just in time as ArenaNet revealed that a closed beta is starting this Friday.

Speaking on a Reddit thread,
the developers commented: "We will officially enter Closed Beta Testing
this Friday. It will be marked with an increase in our pool of
testers." Unfortunately, participants are being told to keep their
mouths shut. "To clarify, this phase of testing is still under NDA and
is not open to the public. Based on the feedback we get from our current
Closed Beta Testing, we will determine the next phases of our beta
program in which we will open beta access to more people."

Very nice. Closed beta means it is getting closer and closer.

From what I have played in the 2 different demo I have done, it shouldn't be a long closed beta. I am think we could see Guild Wars 2 in April. Guild Wars 1 was out in April.
