Battleborn’s Closed Technical Tests Begin on October 29!

Battleborn releases February 9, 2016 – that much you already knew – but a select group of gamers won’t have to wait very long to play Battleborn.

Starting on October 29 we will need your help conducting a series of Closed Technical Tests on PS4, XBOX ONE, and PC to balance characters, stress servers, squash bugs, and test the online infrastructure.

If you’re interested in helping us test out Battleborn and want to be one of the first people in the world to get their hands on this new breed of first-person shooters, register by going to //rsvp.battleborn.com/.

NOTE ABOUT PARTICIPATION: We want you to play our game as much as you do…but there are only so many seats at this party. In other words, registering does not guarantee participation. Please keep in mind that participants are selected on a number of criteria based on the needs for testing, including (but not limited to) platform preference, location, availability, and acceptance of the NDA. The Closed Technical Test file download will require between 4GB to 8GB of space depending on your gaming platform.
