UbiBlog announces that the closed beta for Might & Magic Heroes VII has concluded, but that a second closed beta will come before the release of the strategy sequel in September. They guarantee access for preorders, but also offer a waitlist to sign up to see if you are selected as well. They are also offering players the chance to decide on content for this second test:

Four playable factions are up for possible inclusion in the next beta: the Sylvan forest elves, the Dungeon dark elves, the Stronghold orcs, and the undead of Necropolis. Players who want weigh in can do so via Might & Magic Heroes VII’s community portal, which also offers players a chance to get involved with development by sharing their feedback and ideas. Shadow Council members can vote on the two factions they want to see next, and the chosen armies will appear alongside Haven and Academy in the next beta.
