'Battlefield 4' (ALL) Open Beta For Everyone

by Rainier on Oct. 4, 2013 @ 1:36 p.m. PDT

Powered By the Frostbite 3 engine, Battlefield 4 offers players a glimpse into that is more human, dramatic and believable than anything before it, where multiplayer game design elements are incorporated into the single-player campaign.

In single-player, gamers will experience huge environments, a playground of destruction, access to an arsenal of vehicles and the ability to direct squad mates. Taking a page from the social aspect of multiplayer gaming, the single-player mode will now track players’ progress, adding an element of persistence and friendly competition to the campaign.

The world is on the brink of chaos, China is the tinderbox and you and your squad are the inadvertent spark that could ignite a global conflict. This is Battlefield 4. As Sergeant Daniel Recker, you play as a member of an elite group of unlikely heroes known as Tombstone squad, navigating the turmoil around you as you fight to save the final hope for peace.

Earlier this week the Battlefield 4 beta opened for fans who pre-ordered the game, but today everybody can immerse themselves in the chaos of all-out-warfare with the exclusive Battlefield 4 beta available now on the Xbox 360, PS3 and PC via Origin

The Battlefield 4 beta features the Siege of Shanghai map as well as two game modes including the signature large scale battles found in Conquest and the adrenaline-fueled mayhem of Domination. Fans will also witness the power of Levolution, a new design concept where the environment dynamically reacts to the players every move, both big and small, to ensure that no two games are ever the same. The exclusive Battlefield 4 beta will also introduce fans to Battlepacks, random combinations of new camos, dog tags and more that gamers will earn by progressing through multiplayer and that add an all-new layer of persistence and chance to the multiplayer experience.

Fans anxious to start the fight on current-gen and upgrade later to next-gen for as low as $9.99 can learn how on the official Battlefield blog here. Those players interested in getting the most out of their Battlefield 4 experience can also sign up for Battlefield 4 Premium. Providing a wealth of new content to keep the action going all year long, Battlefield 4 Premium members will receive early access to five themed digital expansion packs, weekly content and unique personalization options all for only $50.

The Open Battlefield 4 Beta for PC is available for everyone to download through Origin, the PlayStation Store website or Xbox.com.
