Crysis 2 Beta Program Announced

Fans can sign up for the Crysis 2 beta once the new website is relaunched.

Just in time to ride the E3 2010 hype, Electronic Arts is relaunching the official website for Crysis 2 on Saturday at 12:00PM CET (6:00AM EST). While that really doesn't sound as exciting as Valve's super-secret E3 surprise, the site relaunch will have an added benefit: the Crysis 2 beta.

That got your attention, didn't it?

To participate, visitors will need to register with the new website when it goes up Saturday morning. Unfortunately, there's no information in regards to platforms, the beta's overall size and contents, or when the program/demo will actually launch. Still, there's the blurb announcing the beta before the original site officially went offline:

Looking to get your hands on Crysis 2 early? Now is your chance! Early registrations will be tracked, and our first wave of users will have a chance to win a key as and when the Crysis 2 beta takes place. All you need to do is sign up early and one day in the near future you may be receiving a mail with an invite to the game.

At the time of this writing, the new site will launch in the early morning. Until then, fans can follow Crysis 2 news by following the game on Facebook and Twitter. The full version is slated to hit store shelves this holiday season.
