Battlefield Heroes Restarts

The beta for EA and DICE's Battlefield Heroes has gone live – having undergone a three month hiatus.

An announcement's been made on the game's official site, stating that the closed beta is now live. Beta keys from last time out are still valid, but those without will have to endure the rigmarole of signing up for an EA account and registering on the game's official site. It's really not that difficult.

The new beta features improved hit detection, a change that's said to significantly speed up the game's combat, and elsewhere Battlefield Heroes' website has been the subject of some care.

The full game's expected over the next few months, and it forms part of a veritable onslaught of Battlefield games over 2009, with a remake of Battlefield 1942 also launching this summer.
