Battlefield 3 early beta access announced; only for those who pre-order it on Origin

EA has announced that all those who pre-order Battlefield 3 on Origin will get early access to the multiplayer beta of the game.

“Players who pre-order the game from Origin will be granted early access to the Open Beta for Battlefield 3 when it goes live in September 2011,” says the Origin store page.

There will be two trials for BF3, just in case you’re wondering. One will be an invite only alpha, and the other will be a much more open beta for the players who had the Medal of Honor copy with a BF3 beta pass included, or a Limited Version.
