Infinity Ward and Activision will reveal more during a livestream event called Call of Duty Next, which will be held Sept.

Infinity Ward’s designers said the beta will “ beyond the Core 6v6 experience,” with a variety of maps (at a variety of sizes) and modes of play. Infinity Ward said Xbox players must have an Xbox Live Gold subscription, and PC players will need to have a free or Steam account. 24-26 is an open beta for all platforms, with cross-platform play enabled. 22-26 for Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PlayStation users, again with the first two days set aside for pre-orders. “Note that Beta codes are tied to your Activision account, and are platform agnostic,” the studio said, “meaning you can access the Beta on your hardware of choice.” Modern Warfare 2’s campaign looks to reprise Call of Duty’s greatest hits
