Xbox 360 owners are in for a treat in early October. They’ll be getting exclusive access to the Medal of Honor: Warfighter open beta.
Players will be able to play as soldiers from ten different nations, including the British SAS, German KSK, Korean UDT, Russian Spetsnaz Alfa Group, and U.S. Navy Seals. It will be running on the Frostbite 2 game engine. Fans of 2010′s Medal of Honor reboot will be eager to see the changes here.
The beta will include a new multiplayer mode called HotSpot. Played on the Sarajevo Stadium map in Bosnia, this mode allows players to attack or defend locations that are randomly selected. This mode is inspired by actual operations, and players are paired through the new Fireteam system.
Depending on how many people download the beta, EA will unlock the “Castle of Glass” music video by Linkin Park. If three million people download it, the video – which is a collaboration between Linkin Park and Danger Close Games – will be released. I really don’t think this will be a driving force for anyone to download the beta… no offense, LP.
Medal of Honor Warfighter will be out on PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 on October 23.
