Star Wars Battlefront is definitely among the most anticipated games of the fall, but EA and DICE still need a little bit of help from the masses to help test it out. With that in mind, sign-ups for the PC version's closed alpha have now begun.

The alpha will take place exclusively on PC through EA's Origin client. No details on which particular game modes will be tested, but DICE will be looking out for technical issues. The alpha will also have some hardware requirements (via Softpedia), which include:

• Windows 7 SP1 or Windows 8/8.1 64-bit OS
• Quad Core CPU - 2.8 GHz Intel Core i5-2300, 3.2 GHz AMD Phenom II x4 955, or 4.0 GHz AMD FX-8350
• 6GM RAM
• Nvidia GeForce GTX 680/AMD Radeon HD 7970 with 2GB or better

Applications are being taken from now until June 30. Those looking to sign up can do so right now on the Star Wars Battlefront website.

But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
