Pokémon Go‘s field test is coming to Oceania this month, developer Niantic Labs announced today.

Australia and New Zealand will be the first western countries to get it in on the beta program, which launched exclusively in Japan last month. For a chance to help test the game, you can sign up here.

Unfortunately, not everyone who applies will be accepted as a tester, as selection will be “based on a variety of factors which may include OS-types, experience in real world games and an element of luck.”

Pokémon Go will launch in full sometime later this year for iOS and Android devices.
