Electronic Arts wants you to join the "B" Company as it announced the impending arrival of the demo for its latest wartime FPS title Battlefield: Bad Company. Take control of rookie Preston Marlowe and his fellow band of wayward soldiers as they go for gold in this highly destructible shooter by DICE.

Gamers who missed the chance to join the Battlefield: Bad Company closed beta will finally experience what it's like to be a gold-mongering soldier in the intense multiplayer Gold Rush mode.

The demo will also include an introduction to the single player campaign as you take a look at the humorous and somewhat irreverent set of characters that make up the "B" Company.

The demo will be available on both the Xbox Live Marketplace and the PlayStation Store this coming June 5. Players who pre-ordered their copy of Battlefield: Bad Company will be able to gain early access to the demo on May 29, with additional instructions found on the official website (click the Via link below to pre-order).

The game is slated to be released this June 25 in North America and June 27 in Europe and will be available on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Until then, we'll all have to be satisfied with playing the upcoming demo. We'll make sure to report any new details we get for the game before then, so make sure to check back in with us from time to time.
