The development team at Sony Online Entertainment has released a cinematic trailer for Planetside 2, which offers fans who are following the game more than three minutes of non-stop action.

The MMO shooter is set to soon go into beta phase and all those who are interested in taking part can sign up for it on the official website.

The developers said that they are looking to get important feedback from the beta phase, allowing them to deliver an even more polished experience in the final release.

Sony has suggested that Planetside 2 would be launched on the PC before the end of the year, but no clear date has been set.

The game will allow players to choose from one faction and then jump into a futuristic battlefield where they can assume a number of roles, customize their characters and use vehicles.

Sony has promised more events and better story elements for Planetside 2.
