Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare Beta Pre-Loading Now Live On Xbox One, PC

The beta for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare has begun pre-loading on PC and Xbox One, so you can load up your version of choice to be ready for the impending test.

• Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Open Beta on PS4
• Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Open Beta on Xbox One

The pre-load comes on the heels of a successful first beta test that ran from September 12-15. That one was exclusive to PS4 owners, but another test planned for the weekend of September 19 will expand to PC and Xbox One pre-orders as well. It will include the first taste of the massive Ground War multiplayer mode, as well as the ability to throw down against other players cross-platform. According to an FAQ, you can opt out of cross-platform play if you only want to play with your own platform compatriots. You can also earn a shotgun by participating in the beta.

Meanwhile, Infinity Ward recently revealed that the campaign will be around the length that you’ve come to expect from a Call of Duty title, though studio narrative director Taylor Kurosaki did say that the hour count can vary.

One thing Modern Warfare definitely won’t have, though, is a battle royale mode. The studio said while it loves battle royale, it’s just not pursuing that direction for this game. Kurosaki joked that with all the other modes, battle royale “won’t fit in the box” and asked, “how much do you want?!”

Modern Warfare releases on October 25 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. For more details, check out our Call of Duty: Modern Warfare pre-order guide.
