PC owners will soon get a crack at the multiplayer beta for Electronic Arts’ first-person shooter Battlefield: Bad Company 2. YES ITS TRUE !!!

Developers DICE revealed on the studio’s official blog PC players can test out the game’s multiplayer component January 28 to February 25, roughly a week before Bad Company 2 hits shelves March 2. We will have BETA-Key give away contests starting next week.

Like the PlayStation 3 beta which concluded last month, PC players will try the game’s Rush mode, where teams of 16 battle for control of a military base. You better ramp up your PC hardware as this baby will need it  !!!

The map titled Port Valdez features snowy landscapes and battles “fought alongside the waterline towards a great oil industrial landscape in the Alaskan mountains,” says the blog post.

DICE says they will reveal more details on downloading the beta as the launch date approaches. No word yet on when a multiplayer demo will reach Xbox 360 owners. (Sorry xBox Fans, LOL)
