Just a reminder to fans out there that we are in an open beta, so it’s possible you may experience some issues connecting to a game. Please be patient and know that we are doing everything we can to make this a smooth and fun experience for everyone.
Starting at 10AM Pacific Time today, the Killzone 3 Multiplayer Open Beta is live! Japan and Europe are already hard at frag and now it’s time for North America and Mexico to join the party! You’ll find the Killzone 3 Beta on the main page of the PlayStation Store; it’s also listed under the 3D and PlayStation Move categories for added convenience.
The Open Beta includes one map, Frozen Dam. All game modes can be played on this map:
- Warzone: The traditional Killzone game mode with game types changing on-the-fly
- Guerrilla Warfare: Our take on Team Deathmatch
- Operations: Our new story driven multiplayer game mode
- Botzone: An offline version of Warzone which can be played against AI opponents
The Killzone 3 Open Beta is playable in 3D and supports the PlayStation Move motion controller. The Beta trial runs until February 15th, so get on board while you can! If you have any feedback, Killzone.com has a section of the forum specifically set up for this purpose. You can of course track all your stats on Killzone.com as well.
Lastly, don’t forget that from Friday, February 4th through Sunday, February 6th we will be giving away 20 Limited Helghast Editions each day. Team members will log on to the Open Beta each of the three days to randomly select players in matches. We will not select players more than once during the sweepstakes and will notify the winners via the email address associated with their PSN account. Check here for official sweepstakes rules.
See you online!
Downloading now! Thanks GG and Sony! Can’t wait to try it!
Sweeet!
Open beta for a game that has already gone gold and has several reviews online already. Just be honest and call this a demo like we all know it is. Its not that hard, really.
Guns of the Helghast will invade tonight at 2030. God Bless 7469 out.
nice.. can’t wait to download it tonight :P
Sometimes I wish I didn’t have a subpar internet connection speed. Now while trying to download this beta would be one of those times. This is barely above 56k dial-up :(
At least I hope I log on this weekend while the GG team is on playing so I could possibly be one of those winners of the LE Helghast Edition. Man I want it so bad.
Fluff, either way, I’m excited to play and will get the game day 1. There’s a reason I’m a huuuuuuuuge (and when I say huge, I mean huge) SCE supporter. Freakin’ amazing games! Good job guys looking forward to the full experience. I’m getting the sharpshooter for sure for my move as well. Got to try that out ^^
Really late there PSN, you promised on Feb 1st, what Happened?
Does the old BETA still work? Just trying to save time I still have it:)
No, sorry!
