According to the PR, the final stages of the large-scale closed beta test will occur between late October and Early November in preparation for the Open Beta service.

When it does open up, several game titles will have new stuff to offer in Home, including Biohazard 5 (that’s Resident Evil for those who aren’t from Japan), Street Fighter 4, Siren: Blood Curse, and more. More than 20 developers have also joined in on the Japanese version of Home, including Activision, EA, Konami, Ubisoft, Sega, and more.

To commemorate this year’s Tokyo Game Show, SCEJ replicated their real-life booth at the event inside the closed beta of Home, where testers can watch promotional videos and get exclusive items for use within the service.
