TimeGate has announced that a multiplayer beta for the PC version of Section 8: Prejudice will launch sometime this fall. The beta will give players their first look at the new features introduced in the sequel and will also show off the "enhanced" Games for Windows Live integration, which includes "streamlined matchmaking and improved server browsing." You can sign up for the beta right now at the official Section 8: Prejudice website.
While you wait for that precious invite to hit your inbox, check out some new screens of Prejudice in the gallery below.
To attract players to the game's recently announced, prejudicial sequel, Timegate has cut the price of Section 8 to $14.99 on the PlayStation Store. We think this is a great move, only because the company didn't cut the price of the 360 version of the game, which is, in a way, kind of prejudiced.
Hot on the heels of the announcement of Section 8: Prejudice, the first details surrounding the game are starting to trickle in. According to the latest press release, TimeGate has taken user feedback from the first game and is using it to "drive every single development decision" for the sequel. Prejudice continues the story of Captain Alex Corde of the 8th Armored Infantry and promises a "lengthier" campaign than its predecessor.
Multiplayer once again features the ability to spawn anywhere on the map, as well as Dynamic Combat Missions -- objectives that change throughout each multiplayer match. Multiplayer will also include "more than 50 customizable weapons, tools and upgrades." Check out the first screens in the gallery below, plus the trailer after the break.
