USA Today has posted up a round up of this year’s E3 (via GAF), but there’s a nugget amongst the text – Journey is going to get a beta next week.

This was news to us, but we’ve just checked and – yes – this does appear to be the case.

No word on what the beta will consist of other than it’s ‘online’ but given the type of game Journey is we’d expect the beta to be a fair chunk of the experience.

You can read our hands on with the latest version here.

More as soon as we get it.
