Originally due out before the end of 2014, Sony Online Entertainment chief John Smedley has attached an early January launch date to the hotly anticipated PlanetSide 2 beta on the PlayStation 4. Writing on Twitter, he told an eager fan: "We tried hard [to hit the aforementioned date]. As it happens, there are only a few weeks to go – either the week of the 13th or 20th [January]."
The developer's free-to-play first-person shooter sure is sounding like an ambitious experiment, seeing as it will host thousands of players in the same space. This is just one of a handful of MMOs on the way to Sony's next-gen system, with EverQuest Next and H1Z1 both set to launch at some point in the future, too.

Nice,i'm signed up for this - looks like pretty exciting stuff..with all the delaying hopefully their release date schedule is real now.
PS2 on PS4, Yeah!
Can't wait!
Betas are cool and all but it really seems like a waste of dev time to prepare one of these.
About time!
I just hope it doesn't lag. I enjoyed Blacklight Retribution apart from the horrible game breaking lag. Been looking forward to PS2 since E3 2013.
Played it in Las Vegas was pretty cool signed up for the beta at the booth and some hot chick gave me planet side 2 control freaks for my DS
is it still possible to sign up for the beta?
Hopefully sony get the online issues sorted or may have a few problems with this.... Really hope it's beast tho have signed up for the beta

@Hero-of-WiiU not much of a time consumer to begin with. You just isolate a piece of the game and put in a video or message. wala! beta

@SKC_Diamond Not sure what you mean?
If a beta is released but there's no PSN to play it on, is the beta truly released?
