SYDNEY, 8 October 2010: Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has announced a Public Beta Trial for the upcoming Killzone®3 for PlayStation®3 (PS3™) – putting the next iteration of the iconic first person shooter through rigorous testing at the hands of the toughest, most demanding critics in existence: the fans. On 25 October, fans of the franchise will have their chance to sample the multiplayer mode for Killzone 3, including the all-new ‘Operations’ game type, party system, and jetpack and exoskeleton vehicles. Not only will participants get an exclusive look at the explosive cinematic experience and a chance to hone their skills ahead of launch, but they’ll be able to shape the final experience themselves – the trial will call for fans to provide honest gameplay feedback, report any bugs and cheats they find, and help test the network code in large-scale, real-world scenarios.

But you’ve got to be quick! Access will only be granted to the first 10,000 PlayStation Plus subscribers in PAL territories (including Australia) – to secure a place and ensure you don’t miss out, follow the steps below:
