When Konami announced a simultaneous worldwide release of MGS4, they weren’t messing around – even the Beta will start on the exact same day for Europe and America – April 21st.
While Americans are dropping cash on Metal Gear pre-orders to grab a beta code (and a shiny Metal Gear Saga 2 DVD, which we’ll miss out on), European stealth enthusiasts only need to wait until April 17th when the beta will be downloadable from the Playstation Store – for everyone.
The servers will then go live on April 21st, and shut off on May 6th. If you’re left craving man cannons, sons of the patriots and upgradable ability systems, then you need only wait until June 12th, when Metal Gear Solid 4 (and Metal Gear Online) launches.
The beta features two maps, “Blood Bath” and “Groznyi Grad”, four modes and 16 player servers. The full game will include an extra three stages, with Konami promising more throughout 2008, as downloads.
