Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 releases in October, but the game's multiplayer beta arrives later this month. If you're not interested in preordering the game or you don't have access via Game Pass, there is another way to get in to the early access period of the test.
As is becoming a yearly tradition, Xfinity internet subscribers can get early access to the multiplayer beta. Members can navigate to the "Rewards" hub on the Xfinity website or app to claim a code for early access. Early access begins August 30, and unlike in years past, all platforms can get in at the same time. The multiplayer beta then opens for everyone on all platforms starting September 6.
In previous years, Activision gave PlayStation users first access to Call of Duty betas because Sony paid Activision for this. However, now that Microsoft owns Call of Duty, everyone across Xbox and PlayStation will get in at the same time. Xbox's Phil Spencer promised "parity" for the Call of Duty series between Xbox and PlayStation, and this seems to be part of that. The executive also recently discussed how Microsoft wants to avoid "slimy" platform policies surrounding exclusive content for Call of Duty.
Activision has yet to reveal what's in the Black Ops 6 multiplayer beta, but it's expected to include a sampling of the maps and modes from the full game. The publisher will share more details on Black Ops 6's multiplayer during the Call of Duty Next event on August 28.
