Modern Warfare 4 Open Beta Starts August 28: All Maps, Modes, and Rewards

The Modern Warfare 4 beta goes wide on August 28.

Early access wraps up on August 25. After that, everyone gets in. No preorder needed. All platforms can play.

This is the real test before launch. Millions of players will hit the servers at once. Activision wants to stress test everything.

What's in the Beta

The beta includes multiple maps and modes. Warzone Resurgence is part of the package. That's a big draw for battle royale fans who want a preview.

Progression is active during the beta. Players can unlock weapons and attachments. There are also exclusive rewards for participating. Anything you earn carries forward if you buy the full game.

Call of Duty: NEXT Kicks Things Off

Before the beta goes live, Activision is hosting Call of Duty: NEXT on August 21. This is the big reveal event. Expect new info on maps, weapons, and modes.

The NEXT event has become tradition. It's where the community gets its first real look at what's coming. This year, it leads directly into the early access period.
