Sign-ups for Killzone: Mercenary closed beta start today

PlayStation Vita owners can sign up today for a chance to partake in the Killzone: Mercenary beta. According to Guerilla Cambridge, you have until 2:00pm PDT on Wednesday, July 17th to sign up and become "one of the few participants."

The closed beta will give a first look at Mercenary's multiplayer package, which I actually had a chance to preview at a Sony event earlier this year. The beta will likely go more in depth than what I saw, presumably showing off the "diverse range of weapons, grenades, armor, and special VAN-Guard devices."

"No matter your tactical approach, Mercenary’s multiplayer beta will give gamers an early look into the power and promise of PS Vita as the optimal handheld platform for first-person shooters," senior producer Mark Green said.

You can sign up for the Killzone: Mercenary beta here. If you are selected, you will receive an email with further directions on how to get started.
