Sony Online Entertainment confirms that it's trying to release the final PS4 version of PlanetSide 2 as soon as possible, although the current beta will be maintained until valuable feedback is received from participants.

PlanetSide2 launched onto the PC some time ago and enjoys a cult-like following thanks to its impressive visuals, the varied multiplayer action, and the different roles players can fulfill in the online action.

Right now, SOE currently has underway a PlanetSide 2 closed beta on the PS4 platform, which offers a select number of console owners the chance to try out the online experience and share feedback on the porting decisions taken by the developer.

The final version is going to debut as soon as possible

Of course, even if the European version of the beta isn't even available, fans are asking about the final version of the game on PS4, and Sony Online Entertainment's Clint Worley tells PSLS that the goal is to do this as soon as possible.

However, he also emphasizes that the beta will run its course, as it's very important to gather feedback from players in order to make adjustments or improvements before the proper debut of PlanetSide 2 on PS4.

"We want the game to be available as soon as possible! That being said, the main focus of the Closed Beta is to get feedback from the players on the state of the game. Once we feel that the performance and the stability of the game is where we want it, we will move towards a final release. Making sure the gameplay is where it needs to be is our main focus," he says.

The final version of PlanetSide 2 on the PS4 will also occupy around 13GB, as opposed to the current closed beta that needs around 5GB of hard drive space, which is going to increase as more content is added to the multiplayer shooter throughout the beta stage.

"The beta download is roughly 5GB, though the size may change in the future with additional content added in the Beta. The full game is around 13GB," he adds.

As of yet, the PlanetSide 2 PS4 closed beta is available in North America to a select number of console users.
