GamersFirst CTO and COO Bjorn "TechMech" Book-Larsson has made a couple interesting announcements in his newest APB: Reloaded blog entry. The team vows to launch the free-to-play version of All Points Bulletin in 2011 and the closed beta should start in late February.

Book-Larsson goes on to say that two key items need to be in place before the closed beta can begin: a new game client and a new network for GamersFirst. If the team runs into problems with either of these items, then the closed beta could be delayed.

The next blog entry will kick off a series of detailed game client discussions, which should be an interesting read for players who plan to try out APB: Reloaded.
