PS Plus God of War: Ascension multiplayer beta this week

Kraken news.

If you're a PlayStation Plus member you'll be able to join the multiplayer God of War: Ascension beta this week.

The official website cites tomorrow - Tuesday, 8th January - as the day the gates open, but Europe typically waits until Wednesday for new PSN toys.

The God of War: Ascension beta has been ongoing for a little while. The existing player profiles will be reset tomorrow, however, in order to level the playing field.

Also, Capture the Flag has just arrived, and there's a helpful post on the God of War: Ascension forum explaining it along with some tips for play.

God of War: Ascension arrives in full on 12th March.
