Arc System Works’ Dragon Ball FighterZ beta went live over the weekend – it’s currently open for Xbox One and PS4 players. That being said, it’s suffered a number of network problems. Bandai Namco issued a statement on Facebook, asking fans to be patient as it addresses the issues at hand.

The publisher noted the possibility of the open beta being extended of issues couldn’t be addressed in a “decent amount of time”. It’s certainly a shame for those who pre-ordered and received early access but that’s the dice you roll when dealing with a beta. Regardless, stay tuned for the next server update to see if things improve.

Dragon Ball FighterZ will launch on January 26^th for Xbox One, PS4 and PC. It features 3v3 combat with a number of famous characters from the franchise including Goku, Vegeta, Trunks, Piccolo, Beerus and much more. Along with online multiplayer, there will be a dedicated campaign with three arcs as the Z-Fighters, Frieza and the Androids battle against a resurrected Android 16.

After extending it till July 25th, Bungie has released a new update for Destiny 2’s open beta. It brings the beta’s version up to 1.04 and requires 1.281 GB of space on the PS4. Patch notes are currently unavailable for the same despite players being redirected to Bungie’s official Updates page. If you want to keep playing the beta though, you’ll need the update. We’ll keep you posted in case any patch notes come through.

The open beta currently has the first story mission Homecoming, The Inverted Spire Strike, two Crucible modes (Countdown and Control) and two Crucible maps (The Endless Vale and Mid Town). On July 23rd, a new social space called The Farm was also available to try out but only for an hour.

Along with new weapons and gear, players also got access to new sub-classes like the Dawnblade Warlock, Sentinel Titan and Arcstrider Hunter. Older sub-classes like the Voidwalker, Striker and Gunslinger also witnessed several changes though the overall shift in terms of weapon and ability balance has attracted both praise and ire from players.

Destiny 2 arrives on September 6th for Xbox One and PS4. The PC version is out on October 24th.

Bungie’s beta for Destiny 2 is now live, three days earlier than the open beta phase, for those who pre-ordered on PlayStation 4. Players are reporting “Termite” error codes but have begun to enter the beta since it went live.

The Destiny 2 beta features a decent array of content, including the first story mission “Homecoming”. From there, you can try the objective-based Countdown mode in Crucible or return to Control which sees some changes from the first game. Co-op players can take part in The Inverted Spire Strike and of course, there’s a ton of new weapons, gear and classes like the Dawnblade to try out.

Destiny 2’s early access beta will be going live on July 19th for Xbox One pre-orders. The open beta launches for everyone on July 21st and ends on July 23rd. In the meantime, Destiny 2 is out on September 6th for consoles with the PC version arriving on October 24th. And if you’re on PC, don’t worry – you’ll be able to try out the beta in late August.

The closed beta for Quake Champions, id Software’s arena shooter in the hallowed FPS series, will receive servers in Australia. This is a pretty big deal since Australia usually gets the short end of the stick when it comes to decent multiplayer ping.

However, it won’t happen immediately. Id Software head Tim Willits told IGN that, “I love my Australian fans, but y’all live on the other side of the world!

“So we’re going to move into closed beta very soon, and we are working with a major server cloud company and so we are not spinning up Australian servers until a few weeks after we go into our closed beta, so don’t anyone get all upset down in Australia. We haven’t forgot about you.”

Today’s technology has made Australian servers “much easier” than, say, South America. “So no one panic in Australia, we got you guys covered. But we will get you in to the closed beta after we get our servers spun up in North America and Europe – but you guys are not far behind.”

Quake Champions will be heading into closed beta on April 6th. You can sign up here to participate.

343 Industries’ open beta for Halo Wars 2, developed in collaboration with The Creative Assembly, will be coming to a close today, January 30th. If you haven’t had a chance to try it out, it’s currently still available for Windows 10 and Xbox One.

The second Halo Wars 2 beta allows players to try out Blitz mode, which is the new card-based PvP mode that emphasizes building decks. Matchmaking is currently supported and you can go 1v1, 2v2 and 3v3. A huge selection of cards is available to try out so do your best to break the game and find any potentially unbalanced combinations.

Though progress won’t transfer to the full game, it’s possible to obtain two card packs for free. Simply log in for one pack and then complete a match for the second. You don’t even have to win!

Halo Wars 2 is out on February 21st for Xbox One and Windows 10 after being delayed from Fall 2016. What are your thoughts on the beta thus far? Let us know below.

At first thought to be available in Japan only, Team Ninja’s Nioh has received another new beta on the European PlayStation Store. Dubbed the “Last Chance Trial”, it’s 7 GB in size on PS4.

Here’s something interesting though – the beta begins on January 21st, 12 AM and wraps up at the same time on January 22nd. You’ll only have 24 hours to play the beta so download it now and make some time. Though it isn’t currently available in the North American PlayStation Store, it will likely appear once the store updates for the week.

Nioh is an especially interesting new hack and slash title from the studio that made Ninja Gaiden. It takes inspiration from Dark Souls, Bloodborne and Diablo while being set in 1600s Japan. Many tropes of Dark Souls like the intense difficulty, summoning spirits to aid you in combat and so on are prevalent.

Nioh will release on February 7th for PS4. Will you try the beta? Let us know in the comments.

If you’re on PlayStation 4 and wondered why the multiplayer beta for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare hasn’t gone live, then don’t worry. Originally scheduled to go live at 10 AM PST, the beta seems to have faced a slight delay.

Thankfully, Infinity Ward is aware of the same. On the game’s official Twitter, it noted that, “The #IWBeta will be up shortly. Please stay tuned. We’re excited for everyone to start playing soon.” We’ll keep you updated here as well when it goes live.

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare’s multiplayer beta will be available from October 14th to October 17th for PlayStation 4 pre-orders first. The beta will then go offline and return on October 21st to October 24th for Xbox One with three Combat Rigs, three multiplayer maps and several modes – including the new Defender – along with crafting and weapon prototypes. PC players won’t have a beta sadly.

Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare releases on November 4th for Xbox One, PS4 and PC.

Update: The beta is now live.

Activision has released more information on the upcoming beta for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, including what maps can be expected.

There will be three maps: Frontier, a two-lane map set on a space station orbiting Neptune; Throwback, a three-lane medium sized map set on a rotating space station with a 1950’s “Main Street USA” motif; and Frost, a three-lane map taking place in a research facility on Europa.

Four modes will be rotated throughout the beta period including Team Deatmatch, Kill Confirmed, Domination and Defender. Defender is a new mode and sees one team securing a drone for as long as possible to earn more points.

The beta will also debut the new Mission Teams feature which allows players to earn team ranks when enlisted in one unit. It allows you to rank up faster by earning extra experience from achieving certain honours. Teams can have commanders who provide missions and ranking up essentially grants cosmetics and various prototype weapons. Two of four mission teams will be available during the beta.

You can learn more about the Combat Rigs and weapons here. Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare’s beta begins on October 14th at 10 AM PT/1 PM ET/6 PM UK for PS4 owners who pre-ordered. It will go live for Xbox One and continue for PS4 on October 21st at 10 AM PST/1 PM ET/6 PM UK till October 24th.

Warhorse’s Kingdom Come: Deliverance has a beta and if you’ve backed the game on Kickstarter, it’s available for you to access. Check out the trailer for the same below if you’re wondering what features and content to look forward to in the open world action RPG.

The beta will offer quite the substantial amount of content – along with experiencing some of the story, you’ll also be able to visit different villages in the open world. Combat will also be available to try out in its realistic glory, incorporating different combos and stances along with several weapons like axes, swords and the like to try out.

Those who wish to try out the beta but didn’t back it on Kickstarter will now need to buy in to try it out.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance was originally meant to launch on PC this Summer but that version may be delayed in order to launch all platform versions simultaneously. What are your thoughts on the beta thus far? Let us know in the comments.

Epic Games’ Paragon will enter Early Access on PC from March 18th onwards.

The developer has announced more details surrounding its Founder’s Pack which costs $19.99 and grants even earlier access on March 14th. You’ll even be able to keep your progress when Early Access officially kicks off on March 18th.

There are also Challenger Packs and Master Packs for $59.99 and $99.99 respectively that will grand skins, unlockables, boosts, a Founder’s Pack for a friend and a unique skin.

Epic clarified that all heroes will be free and no pay-to-win items will be sold. Creative director Steve Superville said, “Paragon is designed so that all players can compete and win without ever having to spend money. All Heroes are free, and cards can only be earned by playing the game. The game will never be pay-to-win, meaning we will never sell gameplay-affecting items. We’re taking this approach because we believe that competitive games need to be fair for all players.”

Early Access will have its share of missing features and placeholder content including features that would make things “easier to understand for new players.” For now, Epic is seeking feedback from players and will be releasing free Heroes every three weeks. If you’re still in the beta and don’t want to take part in Early Access, then you’ll have access for free during beta weekends.
