Killzone 3 multiplayer beta planned

Gamers will be able to try out hotly anticipated PlayStation 3 exclusive first-person shooter Killzone 3 before it's released with a multiplayer beta.

A website for the beta launched over the weekend.

The site includes a box to sign in using your PlayStation Network login, but it doesn't work at the moment.

Will the Killzone 3 multiplayer beta be exclusive to PlayStation Plus subscribers? All eyes are on the gamescom trade show next week.

Dan Pearson went hands-on for Eurogamer in May. There's a lovely video about death in Killzone 3 below.
