The beta starts March 25 and continues until April 25. It will include one mode ("Gold Rush") and two maps. To get on the Beta basically you're either going to need to be a member of IGN's Founders Club or Insider service or pre-order the game at your local Gamestop and only the first 5,000 to preorder are going to be in on the month of action. Oh, and you're going to need to be playing on the 360, as the offer isn't extended to PS3 players.
