Battlefield 1 Beta Begins on August 31st, Insiders Receive Early Access

DICE’s next beta for Battlefield 1 will indeed kick off after Gamescom, starting on August 31st for players on PC, Xbox One and PS4.

Battlefield Insiders are in an advantageous position though – as promised and according to the game’s official Twitter, they’ll receive access on August 30th. “Since you’re an Insider, you’ll get to play the Open Beta one day before it launches worldwide.”

Make sure to check your Insider status through the website and choose your platform of choice by August 21st. You’ll then receive an email for a code that allows early access. At this point, the only thing we know about the Battlefield 1 beta is that it will have new maps. This will be the second beta for the multiplayer this year.

Battlefield 1 is meanwhile set to release on October 21st for Xbox One, PS4 and PC. What are your thoughts on the game heading into Gamescom? Let us know in the comments.
