Killzone 3 multiplayer will be free-to-play

Starting next week, Killzone 3's multiplayer experience will go free on PSN.
Players who download the free-to-play Killzone 3 will be able to join and play with those who own the full game. Additionally, FTP users will have "access to the Warzone, Operations, and Guerilla Warfare modes, as well as every map and DLC pack currently available."

The only catch is all free gamers will be capped at the level of "Sergeant," which is level 10 of 45.

To unlock the "full experience," gamers can pay a one-time fee of $15. By doing so, they will also be given 24 hours of double-experience play and the ability to level up to level 45.

The deal is pretty decent considering the game still sells for around $30 from most retailers (not including used copies) and there are many gamers who could care less about the single-player campaign.
