Developer Danger Close has announced that the company is offering players an open multiplayer beta worldwide for the upcoming first-person shooter title “Medal of Honor: Warfighter.”
The new innovative multiplayer design will now see the most elite soldiers from 10 different nations go head-to-head to outclass each other. Players will be able to choose from 12 Tier 1 units including the British SAS, German KSK, Russian Spetsnaz Alfa Group, Korean UDT, and U.S. Navy SEAL as they represent their elite Special Forces online.
What’s more, fans who join the battle, can also unlock the new Linkin Park “Castle of Glass” music video. Although EA is expected to release the video five days after the beta launches, gamers can unlock it earlier by downloading the beta and hitting the three million download mark.
Arriving this October, Linkin Park’s “Castle of Glass” music video is the result of direct partnership between members of Linkin Park and Danger Close Games. The new video, produced by Mothership with visual effects and animation by Digital Domain for Danger Close, will feature a mix of live action footage edited with gameplay recordings taken from “Medal of Honor: Warfighter.”
The ones who download the beta will also be awarded with 60 minutes of Double XP when the full game launches.
The “Medal of Honor: Warfighter” beta will feature a brand new multiplayer mode called HotSpot, where players attack and defend randomly-selected locations on the Sarajevo Stadium map in Bosnia. Moreover, the game will also feature genuine international hotspots in the single player campaign and will introduce international Tier 1 Operators in multiplayer allowing players to show their national pride online.
Powered by the advanced technology of the Frostbite 2 game engine, “Medal of Honor: Warfighter” is set to arrive on Oct. 26, and players who pre-order the game’s Limited Edition version before that, will receive the Hunt Map Pack at no extra cost.
However, the current beta seems to be exclusive to Xbox 360 owners at the moment.
