“The Private Multiplayer BETA is an important stress test of game systems at scale and serves as a critical development function offering real-time analytics and feedback prior to the final game release worldwide on Friday 12th October.
“We built Black Ops 4 for the community, which is why getting the game early into players’ hands through the BETA is so important to us, especially as we hit the home stretch and polish the game for launch,” said Dan Bunting, Co-Studio Head, Treyarch. “The team at the studio is dedicated to delivering the deepest and most rewarding multiplayer we’ve ever made, and we want community feedback to make the game’s launch the best it can be – we can’t wait for fans to jump in and let us know what they think.”
The Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Private Multiplayer BETA* features six maps, several game modes including the all-new Control mode, and the opportunity to play as ten different Specialists. The BETA content represents just a portion of the multiplayer content that will be available at launch on 12th October.
In Black Ops 4, Specialists each have their own unique weapons, equipment and playstyles. Players can be powerful alone, or devastating as a team working together. The BETA also features the return of the iconic Pick 10 system, along with a series of innovations in weapon handling, combat flow and health regeneration. Players will have the opportunity to strategize with their team through tactical teamplay while discovering unique and powerful ways to combine Specialist skills and dominate their opponents. “
