Battlefield Hardline Open Beta Starts in February

Battlefield Hardline Open Beta Starts in February

Electronic Arts’ biggest franchise shooter Battlefield Hardline will have its open beta starting February 3rd, and ending on February 5th giving players plenty of time to see any changes that EA has made.

Straight from EA’s press release- “The open beta will feature three different maps and modes highlighting this cops and criminals fantasy world. The all-new Hotwire mode brings high-speed chases to the battlefield, as the criminals attempt to steal a list of marked cars while the cops try to repossess them. Available on two maps in the beta, Downtown and Dust Bowl, success in Hotwire will be predicated on teamwork and precision driving. Players can also experience the Battlefield franchise’s signature mode Conquest in Dust Bowl, with epic battles for up to 64 players. And finally, the beta will also feature Heist, another new mode being introduced in Battlefield Hardline. Playable on the map Bank Job, the mode will pit criminals trying to pull off that big score and break into a bank vault, securing their take at drop-off points in the map while a squad of cops works together to stop them.”

General Manager of Visceral Games and Executive Producer of Battlefield Hardline Steve Papoutsis says “There’s nothing more valuable to our team than the relationship we have with our community. Their passion feeds our passion and their feedback has definitely helped make Hardline a better game,”

“We want them to play the hell out of the beta next week and trust that they’ll keep that feedback coming so we can continue to fine tune the game.”
