The Allods Online fourth closed beta test ends tomorrow, Feb. 10, but it looks like you won't have to wait very long to get back into the free-to-play MMO. The team just announced that the open beta will go live on Feb. 16. Keys will not be required to enter the open beta, which will give players access to all current content through level 40.

You can sign up and download the client through the game's official site, which just got a revamp. If you haven't tried out the MMO yet, be sure to check out episode 10 and episode 12 of our BFF Report to get a first-hand look at Allods Online.

The Allods Online team has decided to extend the fourth closed beta test for an extra week to further test the latest patch. Of course, "the overwhelming response from players" also helped them make the decision.

The fourth closed beta test is now scheduled to end on Feb. 10, and gPotato has revealed that you no longer need a beta key to access the game. All you need is a free gPotato account to log in and play Allods Online.
