Call Of Duty: Infinite Warfare Multiplayer Beta Schedule Announced
At this year's Call of Duty XP event, Infinity Ward revealed the beta period for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare would begin on October 14. Today the company announced the exact schedule.
Players who pre-order the game on PlayStation 4 will be able to play the game starting October 14 at 10am Pacific, while Xbox One players who pre-ordered will be able to play the beta the following weekend, on October 21 at 10am Pacific. The beta will end on October 24 at 10am Pacific.
The exact scope of the beta (including the number of maps, Rigs, modes, and weapons) was not announced, but will be revealed "in the coming weeks," according to the press release announcing the news. You can read more about how Infinite Warfare's multiplayer will work in our recent preview.
Our Take
I can't say I'm a fan of console-exclusive betas, and giving Xbox One players only three days to mess around with all the new equipment in Infinite Warfare seems short. Here's hoping we a get a surprise extension of the beta.

We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
