Call all of your contractors and construction crews, because we're only seven days out from being able to break ground on a brand new SimCity. The SimCity beta is set to kick off next weekend, and now you and your fellow world builders can sign up to take part in the festivities. 

Announced through Twitter bright and early this morning, the SimCity beta is set to take place from Jan. 25-28, giving participants a chance to play a "one hour slice" of the game before it finally launches on March 5.
