Word in from today reveals that the beta of 2 is now available for all to enjoy on the PSN.

Co-chief Christophe Balestra revealed the launch via a update, ramping up the hyperbole ahead of the action-adventure's launch.

An embargo on reviews lifted worldwide yesterday evening, the title drawing almost universal critical acclaim, and it looks as if this could be one of the highest rated titles to date.

We'll have more news from Sony on this very soon.
