This isn’t the first time a multiplatform game’s beta has launched first on PS4, as the same was true for Activision’s Call of Duty: Black Ops III.

Incursion: Teams of heroes must defend their base from waves of AI-controlled minions. “You’ll play through Battleborn’s story mode and competitive multiplayer modes as everything from a laser-sword wielding space vampire samurai and a man-mountain with a mini-gun, to a psychotic gentlemen robot and a… walking, talking mushroom”. Players will also be working together alongside their own minions to lead them to the opponent’s base and then destroy it.
