Sony has confirmed its upcoming action title Starhawk takes flight for the PlayStation 3 on May 8.
The announcement arrives as the sci-fi game’s public beta — which introduces video game players to its multiplayer mode — launches today for PlayStation Plus subscribers.
The beta will open to all PlayStation 3 owners by Feb. 21.
The multiplayer is highlighted by a Build and Battle system that adds elements from real-time strategy games to the combat.
The campaign focuses on Emmett Graves, “an outcast gunslinger who is drawn back to the planet that abandoned him, to face a fierce outlaw and his warband of followers,” reads a description on the game’s website.
