Insomniac planning Resistance 2 pre-order program for worldwide public beta

Given that quite a few gamers living outside the U.S. were pretty bummed at the news that Resistance 2 beta keys would be included in Sony‘s U.S.-only Qore online mag, Insomniac Games‘ James Stevenson assured gamers in other territories that they’ll also get their chance to join in on the game’s public beta. More in the full article.

Here’s some good news for those feeling bummed out that they can’t get into the Resistance 2 beta due to Qore being U.S.-only. Word is that Insomniac will be holding a public beta and that the Qore deal is only one of the ways for gamers to get in.

According to Insomniac community relations manager James Stevenson, Insomniac will be announcing a pre-order program for Resistance 2 soon. No word yet on which retailers will be participating, but GameStop and EB Games are probably pretty safe bets.

Stevenson also assured fans outside the U.S. that Insomniac will be bringing the beta to all available territories in order to fully test the game’s online features. A couple of hints about a possible special edition for Resistance 2 were also dropped, although we haven’t heard of anything concrete yet. Stay tuned for further updates.
