Dal 3 Febbraio 2011.
Per far saggiare le qualità del comparto multigiocatore di Killzone 3, Guerrilla Games in collaborazione con Sony Computer Entertainment Europe ha deciso di rendere pubblica la Beta Multiplayer a partire dal 3 Febbraio 2011.
La comunità di giocatori di Playstation 3 potrà quindi testare, come già avvenuto in precedenza per un numero ristretto di fortunati utenti, le nuove ambientazioni, le armi, le classi, i mezzi come il jet-pack e i Mech, questa volta però con la caratteristica del motion control Move e della visione in 3D, a circa 3 settimane dall’uscita del gioco e fino al 15 Febbraio 2011.
Ricordiamo infatti che Killzone 3 è atteso in uscita per il 23 Febbraio 2011 in esclusiva per console Playstation 3 con supporto 3D e Move.

Di seguito il comunicato ufficiale:
Killzone 3 Open Beta Coming to the PSN on the 3rd of February
By Chris Weatherhead, posted Jan 21 2011 12:00AM
It’s Friday and it is a good news day! Between the 3rd and the 15th of February, you will be able to download and play the Killzone 3 Open Beta from the PlayStation Store.
This Beta will offer you exclusive early access to the MP05 ‘Frozen Dam’ multiplayer level from Killzone 3, including all three online multiplayer modes – Guerrilla Warfare, Warzone and Operations – as well as the offline multiplayer mode, Botzone. A sprawling asymmetrical map set in an old dam facility, the playing field in MP05 has been carefully tailored to fit each of the multiplayer modes.
These are the four multiplayer modes included with the Open Beta: be available in the final game:
Guerrilla Warfare (16 players)
Guerrilla Warfare is a standalone multiplayer mode similar to classic Team Deathmatch: You and your teammates must try to kill as many of the opposing team as you can before the timer runs out. In this mode, only the downstream monitor houses and repair bay are accessible, giving the map a very frantic pace.
Warzone (24 players)
If you’ve played Killzone 2, you may already be familiar with Warzone. It’s a round-based multiplayer campaign that consists of five randomly ordered mini-missions. In this mode the power house and penstocks directly under the dam are accessible as well, so there’s more room to come up with different strategies and approaches to your goal.
Operations (16 players)
Operations is a new multiplayer campaign which aims to deliver a more cinematic, story-based gameplay experience, similar to that of Killzone 3’s single-player mode. It consists of a sequence of linear mini-missions, in which the ISA must try to secure the docks and destroy the dam, while the Helghast must try to protect the dam facility.
Botzone (16 players)
Botzone is an offline multiplayer mode ideal for those looking to get to grips with the controls, the weapons or the map layout before going up against live players. Each of the aforementioned multiplayer modes can be played offline, against CPU-controlled opponents.

Over the next couple of weeks keep your eyes on the PlayStation Blog and on Killzone.com for more information.
Have a good weekend!
