Armored Core V beta coming soon to Japan

Invites went out from From Software to Japanese gamers today for the beta for upcoming title Armored Core V. According to The Daily DL, this beta will give a taste of the final product, offering team play, story missions, customization of mechs and a look at the new Mercenary System.

There’s actually two betas for AC5 running through the month of July. The first is for PS3 folks (July 1-14), and the next is for the Xbox 360 kids (July 18 through August 1). Japanese gamers will get the finished game a couple of months later, on October 20th. Us? You’ll have to wait a bit, I’m sure.
