PlayStation Plus members will get a chance to go hands on with the God of War: Ascension beta in early January, according to a recent announcement from Sony. Â The multiplayer beta will include two game modes and two map variations.
The Team Favor of the Gods mode will once again be a focal point for the God of War team. Â Earlier this year at E3 2012, this was the mode that was initially shown to attendees of the show. Â Teams duke out to control strategic locations on a map, while earning favor points for killing the other team. Â The beta will also have a standard Favor of the Gods mode, where players fight over the same objectives, without the support of a team.
The beta will also feature a smaller and larger map variety, two characters to choose from, and a tutorial to get your God of War Ascension skills up to par.
God of War Ascension is due out on March 12th, 2013.
