Want a beta key for LittleBigPlanet Karting? Read on! (Updated — We are out of codes!)

Although we don’t yet have a firm release date for LittleBigPlanet Karting other than 2012, United Front Games has had enough of the game completed to offer playable demos as far back as April, not long after the title was first announced. It was only available to a small group under regulated conditions, always under the watchful eye of United Front, but that time has now passed and LBP Karting is growing up fast and ready to take its first steps into the big world.

SCEA and United Front have begun a brief beta test for the game, and we have keys to give away. The beta will only last until Tuesday, July 31, but in order to receive a code and try the game out, all you need to do is post a comment below and tell us what your favorite racing/karting game of all time is. The first ten commenters will receive a beta code via email!

The offer is open to North American residents only.

Thanks for everyone that posted! We are now out of codes, but keep an eye out for the next giveaway, which will be posted later today.

PlayStation Plus’ most notable free April offerings come from Microsoft
Four players stand together in the 4v4 PvP mode of Minecraft Legends.

Sony outlined all the new offerings PlayStation Plus Essential subscribers can expect in April; surprisingly, Microsoft is the company behind two of this month's four offerings, Minecraft Legends, and the Overwatch 2 Mega Bundle.

On April 2, PS Plus can get those two things free of charge in addition to Immortals of Aveum and Skul: The Hero Slayer. Immortals of Aveum is a single-player shooter where players use magic instead of weapons. Although the thing it's most notable for is flopping upon its release, Immortals of Aveum is still a solid shooter that you might have missed out on, and you should give it a shot now that you can get it through PS Plus. Meanwhile, Skul: The Hero Slayer is a tough 2D platformer roguelike that should entertain fans of that genre for quite some time.

Mecha Break’s robot customization shakes up the battle royale formula

Mecha Break isn't the kind of multiplayer game you can master right away.

You might equip a lance that you barely know how to use because it seemed like a good idea, and spend the rest of a round attempting to bash yourself into enemies to help your teammates. It incorporates action that's more similar to that of Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon than it is to the shooter-focused gameplay in Gundam Evolution, Bandai Namco's multiplayer mecha shooter that shut down last year. Overwatch does come to mind, but in a way where mechs are still the focus rather than the pilots within them.
