When exactly the Modern Warfare 2 beta takes place is still unconfirmed, but according to a reputable Call of Duty leaker, Activision and Infinity Ward have their sights on mid-September. The game will have an open beta available across all platforms: PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One, and PC via Battle.net and Steam and those who pre-order the game will be granted early access. Fans of Sony's consoles will be the first to sample the shooter, with Infinity Ward confirming that the beta will arrive on PlayStation "at least five days" before other platforms.

Originally from Ireland, I moved to the UK in 2014 to pursue a Games Journalism and PR degree at Staffordshire University. Following that, I've freelanced for GamesMaster, Games TM, Official PlayStation Magazine and, more recently, Play and GamesRadar+. My love of gaming sprang from successfully defeating that first Goomba in Super Mario Bros on the NES. These days, PlayStation is my jam. When not gaming or writing, I can usually be found scouring the internet for anything Tomb Raider related to add to my out of control memorabilia collection.
