It is common knowledge that Blizzard Entertainment president Mike Morhaime informed the public that their newest and highly-anticipated masterpiece is on schedule for a fourth quarter release date. It is even better known that the beta will happen some time during the summer. Well, it seems as though Blizzard has given a clue as to when the beta will begin, (at least in a close proximity of time.)

Well-known pro-Blizzard media sites such as CNET News and Loot Ninja have received emails to be sure their Battle.net accounts are all set up by June 19th. Assuming that Blizzard sticks to their normal "done when it's done" policy that also includes a beta approximately five to six months before the game is released, we may very well find StarCraft II to be the golden target for the holiday shopping spree.
