With Black Ops 6 launching in October 2024, CoD fans can try out the multiplayer ahead of time through the Open Beta. So, here’s how to play the Black Ops 6 Open Beta, including details on early access.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 officially arrives on October 25, bringing a fresh campaign as well as the return of round-based Zombies. But it’s the new multiplayer that will grab most players’ eyes, and you can test the new maps and movement ahead of launch through the Open Beta.
Here’s how to play the Black Ops 6 Open Beta, including how you can get early access.
When is Black Ops 6 Open Beta?
There is no official start date for the Black Ops 6 Open Beta but we know it’s coming in the “Fall,” so we expect it to take place in late September or early October. This is based on the MW3 Open beta, which dropped around a month before the full launch.
Unlike previous years, the BO6 beta will arrive on all platforms on the same day, rather than PlayStation owners getting early access privileges. Instead, it will go live on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC on the same date.
ActivisionBO6 players can test the new movement features during the beta.
How to play Black Ops 6 Open Beta
The Black Ops 6 Open Beta is completely free on all platforms, so you’ll need to do is download it from the store on your platform of choice. This means that there’s no need to pre-order Black Ops 6 to gain beta access, you’ll be able to hop in and play before deciding to commit to the final game.
How to play Black Ops 6 beta early
You can get early access to the Black Ops 6 by pre-ordering any version of the game. It hasn’t been revealed how much earlier the perk will get you into the trial version, but anyone who secures their copy ahead of time is entitled to first priority.
Those who pre-order will be sent a code to let them download the beta before it goes live on official storefronts. This will let you experience BO6 before the rest of the world and try out all of the new additions.
That being said, as mentioned above, even if you don’t want to pre-order the game, you can still play the Open Beta for free shortly after.
So, that was everything you need to know about the Black Ops 6 Open Beta. We’ll be sure to update this page with official dates and content details as soon as we know more.
Black Ops 6 launches on Xbox Game Pass on day one as well as last-gen consoles, so make sure you’re up to scratch on the rest of the BO series in the meantime.
