Electronic Arts and DICE, EA's game development studio, has announced that a multiplayer beta for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will be coming on November 19th exclusively to the PlayStation 3. To access the beta, you'll need to get a beta key. That means you're going to have to show some early support of the game with your pre-order from GameStop (or Best Buy) in North America. More details will be coming soon for gamers in Europe on how to get the beta keys. If you pre-order now from GameStop, you also get the Limited Edition version for $59.99, which includes some bonus weapons and more combat advantages. You can see more details on the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 Limited Edition here.

A PC beta of Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will be coming in December. Keep in mind that a Beta is different from a demo, which means you may encounter, and should report on, any gameplay issues. The demo for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 will be coming early next year for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 looks like it's going for more of a realistic combat experience, with less humorous overtones as the original game had. The press release states: "Battlefield: Bad Company 2 provides a true all-out war experience like no other modern warfare game." A little jab at another FPS, which you probably may know about.
