Klei Entertainment has opened applications for their multiplayer Closed Beta.

Why die alone when you can die a silly, merciless death beside a friend? Good question!

Klei Entertainment has you covered. If you're a fan of Don't Starve, you'll definitely want to apply for the Don't Starve Together Closed Beta. Answer nine questions and you're all set!

Of course, applying doesn't guarantee you'll play right away:

"Completing this form doesn't guarantee immediate access. If you're selected, you'll get an email to the address you provide below. We're going to start rolling out access to players in stages as we test the stability of multiplayer servers. We'll do this in a few phases, and once we're confident in it, we'll open the flood gates for everyone."

They do mention that the Beta will eventually be open to all, but no mention of when. They've also got an FAQ, and here are a few important bits:

• You don't need to own Don't Starve to play in the Closed Beta.
• No experience required; they're looking for new players too.
• There's no timeline yet for how long the CB will last.

Go forth, brave expansion tester, and apply today!
