DICE has revealed that the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 multiplayer beta will be available exclusively on the PlayStation 3. To get in on the action starting November 19th, North American PlayStation 3 gamers will need to pre-order the game at either GameSpot or Best Buy.

The Battlefield: Bad Company 2 multiplayer beta will feature the Arica Harbor map, where up to 24 players can compete in one of the game’s four intense multiplayer modes called Rush. This new map displays a superb balance of vehicle and infantry combat, as the American assault unit attacks the Russian army base with full force, advancing further through a beautiful desert town and towards the industrial area in a desperate attempt to overtake the Arica Harbor.

Heavy vehicle warfare on the first bases gradually turns into an intense infantry fight as the level progresses, showcasing this best-in-class online war experience.
