H1Z1 Getting Open Beta for PS4 on May 22

PUBG and Fortnite may rule the roost now, but the original battle royale game, the progenitor of the genre that stated it all, was H1Z1: King of the Hill. Developed by Daybreak Entertainment (formerly Sony Online Entertainment), the game was announced to be coming to the PS4 long ago. Now, it has been confirmed it will be coming to the console again, with an open beta for the game commencing on May 22, so everyone can check it out.

The PS4 port will include console-optimized controls, all the content for the PC version so far, unique in game cosmetic items, and will run at 60 frames per second on PS4 Pro- all of which is awesome. You can check out  trailer for the PS4 version of the game for yourself below.

H1Z1 is a free to play game, and you can already get it on the PC via Steam right now, in case you don’t want to wait for the PS4 version.
