How to Get a Black Ops 6 Beta Code

Everyone wants a chance to play the upcoming Call of Duty for themselves. There were numerous leaks over the past few months, and that information has only helped fuel the hype train. But how do you get a Black Ops 6 beta code?

Where to Get a Black Ops 6 Beta Code

If you want to gain entry to the Early Access beta branch for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, then you require a beta code. Right now, the only way to receive one is by pre-ordering the game. You can pre-order a copy of Black Ops 6 from the following digital stores:

• Steam
• Microsoft Store
• Battle.net
• PlayStation Store
• Xbox Store

Many physical retailers also sell pre-orders of the game, so check your local game shop or Best Buy!

That said, there’s a chance Activision will provide beta codes for the game as part of a social media giveaway, though it’s certainly not a guarantee. We recommend following the official Call of Duty accounts and waiting to see!

When Does the Black Ops 6 Beta Start?

There are two upcoming Black Ops 6 beta periods: Early Access and Open Beta. You will only receive access to the Early Access beta period if you pre-order the game. But for the Open Beta, anyone with an internet connection can download and play the game. Here are the dates you should mark on your calendar:

• Black Ops 6 Early Access Beta – August 30 – September 4
• Black Ops 6 Open Beta – September 6 – September 9

The first week or so of September is jam-packed with new releases, including Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 and Star Trucker, but we suspect you’ll make time to try out this year’s Call of Duty, right?

While the rumors were incorrect, we still suspect Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’s file size is rather large, so prepare your SSD before the beta dates!
