The Halo 3 Beta is a test video game produced by Bungie Studios. It is the precursor to the video game Halo 3, which is to be released by Bungie in November 2007.
The Xbox Live multiplayer beta of Halo 3 is scheduled for availability in spring 2007 for the Xbox 360. This beta also represents an opportunity for gamers to give information that will help in the development of Halo 3. Through the resulting feedback, Bungie Studios will be able to further refine and hone the end result of the game.[1]
Phase One
Phase one consisted of getting on www.halo3.com after the Halo 3 Starry Night CGI Trailer that aired on 12/04/06.[2]
Phase one registration has ended. Players that were selected to participate received an email notification on the week of January 22-26, 2007.[1]
Phase Two: The Rule of Three
Players interested in access to the Halo 3 Beta test were to play at least three hours of Halo 2 multiplayer sessions on an Xbox 360 on Xbox Live during the three day period beginning February 1st at 12:01 am EST and ending February 3rd at 11:59 pm EST.[1]
Afterwards players are to sign up on www.halo3.com on February 5th for their chance to participate in the Halo 3 Beta Test. If the player is one of the FIRST 13,333 to do this and meet the requirements* they will receive an invite notification in February to participate in the Halo 3 Beta.[1]
If not selected to participate in the Halo 3 multiplayer beta players interested have one more chance to get in.[1]
Requirements
Phase Three: Crackdown
When Crackdown is released on February 20, 2007 (Feb 22 - Asian territories, Feb 24 - European markets), and have not secured a place in the Halo 3 multiplayer public beta, players can still get in by purchasing specially marked boxes of Crackdown. [1]
These boxes of Crackdown include an invite to participate in the Halo 3 multiplayer beta when it becomes available. Owners of Crackdown that have access to an Xbox 360 console with hard drive and a valid Xbox Live Gold subscription simply need to download the Halo 3 Beta[1] from the "downloads" section of Crackdown's main menu.[3]
