It’s just been announced that Insomniac Games’ Resistance 3 has gone gold, which means it’s complete and ready for mass production and then distribution to a retailer near you!

Senior Community Manager at Insomniac Games, James Stevenson wrote on the PlayStation Blog:

“Everyone here at Insomniac is excited for you to get your hands on the game we’ve been working so hard on for the last three years.

“In celebration of our gold announcement, we wanted to give you the first look at a brand new gameplay trailer from Resistance 3.

“For those of you who have followed R3 since the announcement of the game at gamescom last year, this trailer brings things full circle. I don’t want to spoil it…”

Intriguing! You can watch that gold announcement trailer below - it’s incredible!

Stevenson continues:

“Even now, our work isn’t complete, as we are actively working on the Online Beta, and will be bringing a Day 1 Patch to the game to bring updates and tweaks to the final product.”

The Resistance 3 multiplayer beta goes live today in North America, and then on August 10th in Europe, before opening up to more participants later this month.

Resistance 3 releases on September 6th in the US, September 7th in European territories, and September 9th in the UK and Ireland.
