Warface for Xbox 360 Enters Open Beta

In October of 2013, a new and free to play game from Crytek hit the PC called Warface. The game was exciting because it was form a top developer. Not too long ago a console version of the game for the Xbox 360 entered closed beta. That meant that only chosen gamers could get in on the free to play action on their console.

Crytek has announced that the game is now in open beta. That means if you wanted to try out Warface for the Xbox 360, but didn’t make the cut for the closed beta you can now get in on the action. The open beta brings the same modes and maps from the closed beta.

Crytek is also promising a constant flow of new content and multiple mission types in co-op mode during the beta. The development team still wants feedback to make the game better before it exits beta.

Crytek Warface Free-to-Play FPS Launches: If It’s Free, It’s for Me

I’m a big fan of all of Crytek’s FPS video games. The thing I don’t like about buying new video games is that they can get a little expensive at about $60 each. Crytek has announced that its new and free to play FPS video game is now available called Warface. That’s right, a free to play Crytek quality videogame for PC gamers.

Crytek says that Warface has AAA production values and all of the quality expected from the studio even though it’s free. The game is playable directly in PC browsers and has both cooperative and competitive game modes. The game also has four soldier classes and places a special emphasis on teamwork.

Despite the game being free, Crytek also promises that the game will be constantly updated to provide fresh challenges. The game is now available in North America, Europe, and Turkey. It’s also available localized in English, French, German, and Turkish languages. Support for additional languages is coming in future.

Of course, nothing is completely free, and you can expect there to be many upgrades and add-ons available for a fee. Let’s hope the game isn’t one of those “pay to win” situations.
