Following an explosive unveiling and the announcement of a Battlefield 6 trial version, anticipation for the upcoming action game has never been greater.
If you haven’t experienced Battlefield Labs yet and are eager to play it, this is the perfect moment for you to dive in!
Let’s walk you through when the Battlefield 6 beta is scheduled and provide instructions on securing a beta pass. Ready? Here we go!
When does the Battlefield 6 beta take place?
The Battlefield 6 beta will take place from Thursday to Sunday across two weeks in August.
These are the dates you’ll have the chance to try it out:
- 7th-8th August*
- 9th-10th August
- 14th-17th August
Instead of the asterisk on the first date range, it signifies that unlike the other two periods labeled as open beta, the game is only available for early access testing from August 7th to 8th.
If you don’t mind waiting until the 9th of August, you’ll have an opportunity to enjoy a complete six-day beta access at no cost.
But if you’re desperate to jump in early, read on for the details.
How to get Battlefield 6 beta early access explained
As an ardent gaming enthusiast, I’ve stumbled upon three methods to secure early access to the Battlefield 6 beta, but alas, the first two have slipped through my fingers if I happened to miss the window of opportunity.
Individuals enrolled in the Battlefield Labs test program will receive automatic entry into the early access beta phase without further action needed.
Additionally, those who tuned into the streamer showcase happening at the reveal event on 31st July were eligible for an early access reward by simply watching creators.
If you’ve overlooked the previous chances, your only remaining option for gaining early access is by signing up for EA Play Pro. This subscription will grant you immediate access.
How to play the Battlefield 6 open beta
You can participate in the open beta for Battlefield 6 across multiple platforms – PC (via Steam, Epic Games Store and EA app), as well as Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5.
To play the open beta, all you need is an EA account and one of the above platforms.
Starting on August 4th at 4pm (British Summer Time), you can begin pre-loading the game ahead of time so that it’s all set when the servers become accessible. Given that it requires 75GB of storage, it would be wise to initiate the download as soon as possible.
Every session will commence at 9am British Summer Time (BST) on the specified start date and wrap up at 9am BST on the specified end date.
