style="font-style: italic;">Champions Online strikes a blow against subscriptions with free-to-play beta launch.

Last month Champions Online decided that it will be joining the increasing number of free-to-play games available to players in February. But before the game makes its change there's work to be done and Cryptic needs a few good testers to help put the new free-to-play version through its paces.

The Champions Online free-to-play closed beta is scheduled to begin today and if you're a subscriber you're already in a pool of potential beta testers. So be sure to check that inbox and you might be one of the few selected to help test out all the new free-to-play content.
