UK developer is opening the beta soon for their reboot of the 2004 PC game Evil Genius next week. Those who have registered on the official site, as well as receiving an email, will be the lucky first few to play and test every facet of the game.

Unfortunately Rebellion are not accepting any more applicants right now, but it should be available to play on Facebook and Zynga.com on October 23rd to those in the beta.

What do you think? Would you prefer a proper Evil Genius sequel instead of a social game? Let us know in the comments.
