Battlefield Hardline in February; Open Beta in January?

A Gamescom 2014 interview with Visceral Games on the Symthic Forum talks about Battlefield Hardline, the upcoming police-themed installment in the shooter series, though the Visceral employee they say they spoke with goes unidentified. Hardline was recently delayed until next year, and this conversation indicates they expect to release it in February 2015 following an open beta phase in January. Word is: "Yes. There will be an open beta in January, a month before the game launches. It's not sure yet if we will do the beta on older generation systems like the PS3 and XBOX360, but they'll definitely be on the PS4, XBONE and PC." Thanks DSOGaming.
