There’s a time for everything under the sun, and today, it’s time for Killzone 3 fans to know exactly when the game’s multiplayer will be begin, who’ll be able to participate, and how many players will be accepted.

There’s also a new trailer for it below the break, and simply put, it wins.

If Sony chooses you, an email will be sent your way including your beta code and other important information.

Sony also released a new trailer for the highly anticipated exclusive shooter, one that’s drop dead gorgeous and full of win. In it, a leader’s talking up his soldiers, boosting them up with lofty words like a man who’s just seen his savior. Victory.

And so it begins. The Helghast are trigger happy and so are you and your crew. Suddenly bullets! Lives get wasted on the battlefield like stale restaurant food; yet it feels and tastes good.

Quench it:

killzone 3 comes available on February 22nd in the U.S., no release date has been given for Europe.

    I hope I get in this beta. I mean I’m one of the biggest Killzone fans.This is what I thought of when Sony said exclusive beta access.

    Yeah, I can hardly wait. Oh and Ernice I checked the PS Blog and they list the 19th as the day for the exclusive theme.

    Cool. Oh and it kinda sucks that only the first 5000 who meet the requirements from EU and US respectively will get in. On that note, don’t panic if I don’t post a single comment that day. I’ll probably be refreshing the PS Store every minute, lol.

    LOL, I know what you mean :-)

    I’ll be trying hard, too.

    i am not going to be mad if i do not get into it, but i really want to. I at least get to play assassin’s creed beta and dead space 2. I really want to play it as well, and I think they will let more people in after the beta has been out for a while. like the dead space 2 beta. it started a few weeks ago and they just invited a whole new group of people. So we will see.

    right, so we pay them 70+ bucks a year for features THEY PROMISED and to get the features THEY PROMISED we have to download a certain XMB theme?
