Insurgency: Sandstorm pre-order Beta starts next week, watch the Gamescom trailer here

August 24, 2018 by Andrew Newton

Focus Home Interactive have announced that their team based, tactical FPS Insurgency: Sandstorm will start its pre-order Beta Test 2 on 30th August.  Anyone who wants to take part in this upcoming Beta Test 2 can pre-order on Steam now and gain a 10% discount.  There’s an additional 10% discount if you own the original Insurgency.  As well as Beta Test 2 news, there’s also a brand new Gamescom trailer which you can see below…

By using lethal close quarters combat and objective-oriented multiplayer gameplay, Insurgency: Sandstorm provides a hardcore depiction of combat.  Players will rush through the war-torn environments of a fictional Middle East country coordinating support with team mates to outmaneuver and gun down the enemy.

Insurgency: Sandstorm features:

  • Character and weapon customisation to show off your skill.
  • Peek around corners, breach doors and use smoke to cover your advance, and if things get too hairy, call in air support.
  • Huge maps for up to 16-versus-16 player game modes, or 8 player co-operative against AI.
  • Competitive multiplayer features including matchmaking, broadcasting UI and replays.
  • Machine gun mounted drivable vehicles.

Beta Test 2 starts next week with the game releasing fully on Windows PC this September.  Insurgency: Sandstorm will be coming to Xbox One and PS4 next year.
