Just as we reported last month, the PC Call of Duty: WWII beta has finally been dated by Activision and it’s happening on September 29, and will last until October 2! Thankfully, it’ll be a full-on open beta for PC players, so there’s no fighting for keys.

Here’s some of the info straight from the press release:

The PC Open Beta is just a small part of the full Call of Duty: WWII Multiplayer experience coming to Steam in November. This test is a critical step on our road to delivering the best possible online experience on Steam at launch in November, with the following key goals:

• Stress test core gameplay systems and online backend infrastructure at scale
• Provide PC fans with their first hands-on experience of the boots-on-the-ground combat coming in Call of Duty: WWII Multiplayer
• Engage with the PC community to fine-tune and optimize the PC experience for November

Here’s the minimum PC requirements in order to play the COD: WWII beta. Note that the specs listed are for the beta only, and the recommended specs will be shared at a later date.

We covered the COD: WWII beta extensively here on MP1st. Not only did we have a hands-on impression, we even have an audiocast where we talk about it candidly. And of course, we have a ton of features about it too.

If we see any changes from the COD: WWII beta from the private console version, we’ll let you know.
