Neverwinter Nights 2 v1.23 and Mysteries of Westgate

Obsidian Entertainment’s Rob McGinnis dropped by the official Neverwinter Nights 2 forums to announce that both Mysteries of Westgate and the v1.23 beta patch will be released “very soon”. However, rather than the public beta approach they’ve taken in the past, Obsidian is asking for fans to sign up for closed beta testing of the patch:

Hello everyone,

I do not want to get people’s hopes up, but I am told that Mysteries of Westgate will be released very soon (sooner than my normal soon).

We will also be releasing the 1.23 beta within a matter of a day or so, so I thought I would talk to you all about how we are planning things to work.

We are going to change the 1.23 beta to a semi-closed beta, instead of an open beta. This will help us support you better and will help to get MoW out there sooner, rather than waiting on another few rounds of MoW testing.

MoW has not been specifically tested with 1.23 yet, so we want to make sure any bugs that come up are reported and handled correctly. It wouldn’t be fair to Ossian if there ended up being some compatibility issues between MoW and 1.23, and people just chalked those up as issues with MoW.

I will be asking for people that want to test 1.23 to sign up at the Obsidian forums ( http://forums.obsidian.net/ ), then send me a PM on those forums to let me know.

We will also be providing a revert patch for the beta, so if you find things are too troublesome for you, you can revert back to 1.22 so you can enjoy MoW.

If you have any questions, please post them here and I will try to answer them as best I can. No, I cannot give an exact date. 🙂
