News: With an open beta beginning next week.
The MTV Multiplayer blog was on hand at an Activision media event in the UK where Paul Murphy, Activision's PR Manager for Blur, confirmed the Bizarre Creations racer will be released on May 25 in the US and May 28 in the UK.
The PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 game has been described as a "realistic version of Mario Kart" with real-life cars that come equipped with some very destructive weapons.
"What we wanted to do was make a racing experience where there was loads of overtaking, loads of packed racing, loads of battling cars and action. The first thing was to put 20 cars on the track instead of eight. The other thing we looked at was power-ups. Each of the power-ups is designed to be useful to attack the next person in front of you depending on where they are," lead designer Gareth Wilson told MTV News after the presentation.
Activision will begin a multiplayer for Blur on the Xbox 360 next week and beta codes are being given away by a wide variety of sites this week.
We'll have more soon.
