Just a reminder to fans out there that we are in an open beta, so it’s possible you may experience some issues connecting to a game. Please be patient and know that we are doing everything we can to make this a smooth and fun experience for everyone.
Starting at 10AM Pacific Time today, the Killzone 3 Multiplayer Open Beta is live! Japan and Europe are already hard at frag and now it’s time for North America and Mexico to join the party! You’ll find the Killzone 3 Beta on the main page of the PlayStation Store; it’s also listed under the 3D and PlayStation Move categories for added convenience.
The Open Beta includes one map, Frozen Dam. All game modes can be played on this map:
- Warzone: The traditional Killzone game mode with game types changing on-the-fly
- Guerrilla Warfare: Our take on Team Deathmatch
- Operations: Our new story driven multiplayer game mode
- Botzone: An offline version of Warzone which can be played against AI opponents
The Killzone 3 Open Beta is playable in 3D and supports the PlayStation Move motion controller. The Beta trial runs until February 15th, so get on board while you can! If you have any feedback, Killzone.com has a section of the forum specifically set up for this purpose. You can of course track all your stats on Killzone.com as well.
Lastly, don’t forget that from Friday, February 4th through Sunday, February 6th we will be giving away 20 Limited Helghast Editions each day. Team members will log on to the Open Beta each of the three days to randomly select players in matches. We will not select players more than once during the sweepstakes and will notify the winners via the email address associated with their PSN account. Check here for official sweepstakes rules.
See you online!

@145
Same here. I was playing since 2 est time. About 20 mins ago i got the boot receiving the the 993 code. Then in a failed attempt to return to the multiplayer, I got the 20005 error.
add me to the error 20005, i played from 1:20-2:30.
now i cant get back on multiplayer.
FYI. If you have ‘suk’ in any part of your PSN, no matter the context, you will not be able to play online. They ban you on the reason “User entries cannot contain obscenities”.
i cant get into multiplayer when its in close beta and now still the same error code 20005….. WHATS HAPPENING!? hope it doesnt affect the lucky draw tomorrow….
@155 agreed. Hopefully they have this fixed before the draw tomorrow for the edition.
yeah I’m getting that error has well I’m guessing they took it down to patch it or something like that or there is a problem with it
it was a bit glitchy
just finished playing the beta and I was Amazed by it. only thing is I keep getting the error code 20005 while trying to play online =( but its still awesome
The move controls are alright. Definitely will take some getting used too.
However the gimmick knifing move is terrible, they should have found some way to map it. Thrusting the remote is terrible and you should not have to waggle something you are trying to aiming with.
Make sure to customize the settings to fit your playing style. You can adjust cross hair sensitivity & the size of the dead zone in the Options Menu.
