The Next Battlefield Hardline Beta Starts Next Week

Here we go with the next Battlefield Hardline beta and it is an open one for all of us on the PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, and PC. No discrimination for platform or for those who could only make it to a specific convention or random drawing online. We all get to play Battlefield Hardline in beta mode starting on February 3rd and running into February 8th. Unless you are in Japan that is as the start date is the 4th instead for the PS4 and PS3. None the less we all get to give Battlefield Hardline another fun testing.

As before this is another great thing as it will further help Visceral iron out some of those issues with balancing for Battlefield Hardline before March 17th. Hopefully it will also help EA make sure that the multiplayer servers are good to go and read for the load. We need to make sure that Conquest mode runs smooth for all 64 players after all. It would be a shame if we all load up on launch week and everything crashes because Battlefield Hardline could barely handle the 24 players for the last gen consoles with the next gen consoles.

"There's nothing more valuable to our team than the relationship we have with our community. Their passion feeds our passion and their feedback has definitely helped make Hardline a better game," said Steve Papoutsis, General Manager of Visceral Games and Executive Producer of Battlefield Hardline. "We want them to play the hell out of the beta next week and trust that they'll keep that feedback coming so we can continue to fine tune the game."

As an added treat for all of waiting for the Battlefield Hardline here is a new trailer to highlight all the ins and outs of the game. Some of it is stuff we already know and others, like the Hacker Mode, is a bit new. At least the Watch_Dogs mode is new to me. There are so many games and the wires get crisscrossed sometimes. I just hope I get to cut the blue wire when Battlefield Hardline's beta launches for all.
