SANTA CLARA, Calif. – June 27, 2013 –
The war is now officially in full swing in
Soldier Front 2 from
Aeria Games, a leading global publisher of
free-to-play online games. The anticipated new online first-person
shooter (
FPS) has now gone into open
beta with additional content not seen in the closed beta testing
phase.
Players can arm themselves with an arsenal of newly released
guns, and take their newfound weaponry into the new Escape mode.
Escape is a pulse-pounding battle wherein one team must first reach
and activate a signal point to call down a helicopter and then
fight their way to exit point. The opposing team’s objective
is to prevent any enemies from ever reaching the helicopter, by
either running out the clock or exterminating the escaping
team.
Along with the new mode come four more maps previously
unavailable in closed beta. The Shipyard has been added to
Deathmatch options, while Team Deathmatch sees the addition of the
Bazaar, Desert, and Base maps. Desert is also available for
selection in the bomb-defusing Sabotage mode.
Aeria Games is running multitudes of events to commemorate open
beta, both in-game and out. GMs will be hosting games across the
whole spectrum of
Soldier Front 2 modes, offering prizes to the top
performers. “Bear Hunts” will task players with finding
and killing GMs in-game. Several events are also running on the
forums, including a contest for players to create videos of their
own favorite moments in the game.
Soldier Front 2 is free to download, and like all Aeria
Games titles, is free-to-play. Players can participate in closed
beta now at
soldierfront2.aeriagames.com. Stay on target with
news, events, and updates at
Soldier Front 2’s
Facebook page.
Soldier Front 2 is not available to play on the Aeria
Games portal in European and Middle Eastern territories.
