One of the most hardcore games in the MMO world is branching out toward consoles, but in a way you might not expect. When originally announced, Dust 514 was lauded as a cross-platform game where the events of the battles taking place on the PlayStation 3 would affect the greater world of Eve Online. At E3, developer CCP announced a batch of new details for Dust 514 as well as a new trailer that can be seen after the jump.
Dust 514 will be a free-to-play format. It will have a custom PlayStation Home Space and also a PlayStation Vita companion app titled Dust 514: Neocom.
The premier beta event for DUST 514 is scheduled to begin on Friday June 29th, and will run throughout the weekend. Participants that register at www.DUST514.com/betawill be chosen at random to participate, and new players interested in joining the action can still sign up. This event will be the first of several throughout the summer, and CCP will be revealing more information in the coming weeks.
DUST 514 will be fully integrated into PlayStation Home, starting at E3. Debuting as part of Sony’s Virtual E3 Experience, the DUST 514 Home Space is a way for users to get up close and personal with the New Eden universe. In addition, the first 10,000 visitors to the DUST 514 Home Space will be able to get “All Access” beta keys, guaranteeing them access to all the DUST 514 beta events over the summer. The DUST 514 Space will remain live and accessible to players throughout the summer, and Home users can expect additional beta keys to be distributed via the Home Space in the future.
