Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 will have an open beta before its launch and here's everything you need to know about the open beta early access, dates and content.
Traditionally, Activision host an open beta for their annual Call of Duty games a couple of months before the launch and it will be no different with Modern Warfare 2 , this year's Call of Duty title. If you're looking forward to playing the game, here's everything you need to know about its open beta including early access, start date and content that will be available during the short test.
How to get early access to Modern Warfare 2 open beta?
To play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 open beta earlier you'll need to pre-order the game. Regardless of how you pre-order Modern Warfare 2, you'll get access to open beta earlier, meaning that every digital and physical edition of the game will include early access to open beta.
Activision
Activision will be announcing the open beta dates in the coming weeks as per their official blog post.
Our guess would be August or September since most of the time, Call of Duty open betas are hosted a month or two before the official launch. Last year's Black Ops Cold War had a beta test in October, prior to its launch in November.
What content will be available in the Modern Warfare 2 beta?
Activision confirmed that the open beta will give players an advanced look into the game's multiplayer mode. We expect to see at least two maps and game modes, including Gunfight, as well as a wide variety of weapons and other features.
Modern Warfare 2 beta will be available across all platforms but PlayStation players will have exclusive early access before PC and Xbox players jump in two days later. This has been a tradition for Call of Duty over the past years so it's not surprising to see it continue.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is launching on October 28, 2022, for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
