Some Xbox 360 owners are already playing BF4 multiplayer and streaming it online.
Battlefield 4 is still a couple of days away from officially launching, but some Xbox 360 players have already gotten their hands on the game. Not only that, they’ve been live-streaming Battlefield 4 multiplayer gameplay since yesterday.
This means that some retail stores have broken the street date and sold Battlefield 4 early. This isn’t a big surprise and happens all the time with games — the same happened with BF3 back in 2011.
EA has sent out DMCA letters to those who live streamed BF4 games on Twitch and other services, but some of them still appear to be streaming online. It’s unlikely they’ll be banned from the game, as the ones who played BF3 early didn’t get banned either.
It’s not a big deal, really. We’re less than two days away from launch, the game went gold weeks ago, and already started pre-loading for PC owners.
Battlefield 4 launches on October 29 in North America and two days later in Europe. Those in the UK will have to wait for a day longer, to Nov 1. That is, unless you can convince the game store to give you a copy earlier.
