Far Cry 3 Multiplayer Beta Incoming

Far Cry 3’s multiplayer will be available to console players this summer in a closed beta. Ubisoft revealed the event on its Facebook page, which asks for potential testers to ‘Like’ if they want a chance of getting in the closed beta.

Six classes will be on offer alongside 16-player matches and a variety of modes and maps.  It’s set to run for 2 weeks but PC gamers won’t be able to get in on the action this time.

Only 500 keys are being handed out at this stage, though Ubisoft has said that more will be available before everything kicks off in summer.  US gamers can guarantee their inclusion by pre-ordering Ghost Recon: Future Soldier from Gamestop before May 22nd.

Far Cry 3 is due out September 4th in the US and September 6th in Europe. Read our Far Cry 3 multiplayer preview here.
