Modern Warfare II Open Beta Dates and Rewards
Before getting into the rewards you can earn, it’s important to know when it’s even possible to participate in the COD Modern Warfare 2 Open Beta. While the title says open, there are different dates for players depending on the edition they purchases and the platform they’re on. As the trend has gone for the past few years, PlayStation players will get the earliest access. Below you can find all of the important dates.
- September 16-17: PlayStation Early Access
- September 18-20: PlayStation Open Beta for all on the platform
- September 22-23: Early Access for PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
- September 24-26: Open Beta access for all platforms and players.
The early access designations in the schedule are set for players who have preordered the game already.
