Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Beta Dates and Schedule Revealed

For those looking forward to try this year’s Call of Duty game before it launches, the Black Ops 6 beta dates and schedule have been revealed! While the game is launching in October, gamers will be able to play the game as early as next month!

The dates were revealed by Activision in the first episode of the COD POD podcast where the devs talk about the game and more. Activision has sent out the press release for it which added additional info as well.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Beta Dates and Schedule:

Weekend One: Early Access

Available to players who have preordered the game across all platforms (consoles and PC), as well as Game Pass subscribers, the first Beta weekend is scheduled to begin on Friday, August 30 at 10AM PT/1 pm ET/1 am HKT, and end on Wednesday, September 4 at 10AM PT1 pm ET/1 am HKT.

Weekend Two: Open Beta

The second Beta weekend is for all players on all platforms, regardless of their preorder status, as well as Game Pass subscribers. The second Beta weekend is scheduled to begin on Friday, September 6 at 10AM PT,/1 pm ET/1 am HKT and end on Monday, September 9 at 10AM PT/1 pm ET/1 am HKT.

The Black Ops 6 Multiplayer Beta gives fans hands-on with the incredible new Omnimovement system and other gameplay innovations across a variety of brand-new Core maps, lets them build their own loadouts, access a variety of weapons, equipment and Perks, and drop in across a number of Modes.

This marks the first time in a decade that PlayStation gamers won’t get an early access period all their own. Of course, Given that Microsoft now owns Activision, that’s to be expected now and in the future. Hopefully, the BO6 beta follows the beta tests of previous Call of Duty games wherein servers are turned on a day early and sometimes extended as well.

Expect an impressions piece from us regarding the beta, and if Activision is generous enough, a closed beta key giveaway which we’ve been doing the past few years.

Black Ops 6 will launch on October 25 for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
