General manager Karl Magnus says the beta is ”hopefully very, very soon” and confirms it for this month. Another page for GameStop managers was noticed.
It was Battlefieldo that spotted the now downed Battlefield 3 beta pages. It seems their launch was a little too premature and EA took them offline until they’re completely ready. ”This week is going to be off the hook #BF3”, twittered DICE’s Daniel Matros.
”There’s a couple of last things that we need to sort out before we can announced the actual date, but it’s going to happen in September, so stay tuned. We don’t have the official date yet but we are equally eager to get it out there as well,” said DICE boss Karl Magnus.
”It’s going to be multiplayer,” he continued, ”but I don’t believe we’ve said exactly what it will be, and I’ll save that for the real announcement coming out. But it’s going to be multiplayer.” They plan for the beta to launch on all platforms simultaneously.
Battlefield 3 releases on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC October 28th.
