After a very long wait and the odd delay, the massive open world shooter Planetside 2 is finally taking its first steps on the PlayStation 4, delivering war on an all new and truly epic scale for console gamers.
For a lucky group of Beta testers, the game has finally went live in a meaningful way, but if you didn’t get a Beta key, there’s no need to fret just yet. The games creative director, Matthec Higby, there are more Beta keys still to be rolled out in the next batch. Speaking by way of twitter, he said “note: keys will be going out in several batches as we ramp up, not everyone can get one in the first batch. Please be patient.”
There was also a widely distributed Press Release from SOE where they express pride in having the game on their platform by saying, “PlanetSide 2 is defined by its massive size and strong camaraderie amongst players, making it an exceptional fit for the PlayStation 4’s powerful hardware and social community. We didn’t just create a port — we created a full console first-person shooter experience.”
The beta may also be arriving in Europe within the next “2-3 weeks”, the delay is only because of submission forms needing to be constructed and isn’t related to the game.
