Mirror's Edge Catalyst Begins Closed Beta

Speaking of betas, move aside, Overwatch: there’s more than one game vying for public attention well before proper release, and while you may have all the hype, this one has the history: EA and DICE are happy to announce that Mirror’s Edge Catalyst will be entering closed beta soon for PC, Xbox One, and PS4 systems.

“Faith Connors is a self-assured thrill-seeker and one of the best Runners in the city of Glass. But Faith’s carefree days are numbered. As she crosses paths with the evil Gabriel Kruger and the city’s oppressive Conglomerate, Faith finds herself running for something far more important. Playing Mirror’s Edge Catalyst, you’ll experience a rich storyline with a heroine-to-be fighting for both the city and herself. Use the fluid movement and your combat skills to be the Catalyst of change.”

You can register for the closed beta here, but be aware that you need an Origin account and you won’t be guaranteed a spot. If you don’t get one, fear not--the game proper will release May 24th, so you won’t have a long wait.

...Yeah, so… Enjoy that, if you get to do it.
