Battlefield 2042 open beta coming September

One month before the game's launch.

Battlefield 2042 open beta will take place over September, EA and DICE today declared.

While specific dates weren’t detailed, it’s likely the open beta will follow a closed beta on offer to those who pre-order the upcoming shooter.

A closed alpha will take place before either beta and will likely incorporate cross-play functionality with a very limited amount of users. Like the betas, the date of the alpha isn’t known as yet either. We’ll keep you posted on all dates as they’re confirmed.

For now, we do know that Battlefield 2042 will head to Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4 and PS5 on 22 October.

About the author

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
