War Inc. Battlezone Heads to Second Open Beta Phase

War may be hell, but War Inc. Battlezone has been heaven for its strong and loyal following. Now the game is even better, as developer/publisher Online Warmongers announced today that the world’s first free-to-play AAA third-person shooter has entered its second and final open beta phase.

Since entering Open Beta Phase 1 in late July, War Inc. Battlezone has enlisted players from 175-plus countries who have collectively invested more than 120 million hours or 13,000 years of game play!

New Open Beta Phase 2 features include:

• New camera and character controls that provides players more direct, tight control of their characters, easing navigation through game levels.
• The weapon system has been upgraded with tons of new licensed guns, featuring weapon upgrades, more accessible and easy-to-attain rewards, and new ways to receive premium content and new weapons.
• The game is replete with new game mechanics, including the introduction of a weapon that paints targets for specified airstrikes, voiced tactical commands to strategize with comrades and the inclusion of many social features like clan support.
• The game engine has been tuned up to be more stunning than ever. Sporting more lifelike animations via motion capture, enhanced textures and higher detail, War Inc. Battlezone reigns as the most graphically impressive free-to-play shooter available.
