Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls, the new 4v4 tag-team fighting game from Arc System Works and PlayStation Publishing, has an open beta scheduled for July 24-26, ahead of its August 6 release date. This will be the first time players can experience the game outside previous closed beta tests, and it will also see the introduction of Blade to the game for the first time. In total, players will have access to 15 different heroes and villains to play in heated close-quarters combat.

Although it was previously known that there was a beta test coming, Sony just revealed more details about what will be playable in the beta. The Fighting Souls open beta will be available on PS5 and PC via Steam . As confirmed previously, however, there is. Although there is no requirement for a PlayStation Plus account, players will need to have or register an "Account for PlayStation"—seemingly a rebranded PSN account, as we previously reported . This online account requirement was previously confirmed when SteamDB showed that the game would be inaccessible in 132 countries due to PlayStation account restrictions.
