NCsoft announced yesterday that the Aion open beta will be held from Sept. 6-13. In preparation, the company has made the open beta client available through FilePlanet and GamersHell (available later this week), as well as via BitTorrent.

In addition to distributing the client, FilePlanet will be giving out open beta keys starting Sept. 1. So if you don't have one yet, you may want to head over to the site on Tuesday to grab a key and the client. Aion launches in North America on Sept. 22 and Europe on Sept. 25.
