The open beta of Call of Duty WWII starts this month. Shooter fans, pay attention: There is a trial offer waiting for you that you should not miss.
With the new installment of the Call of Duty series “WWII”, Activision and Sledgehammer Games aim to bring back many fans who left after the last part of the series. After outer space failed to fully convince the CoD fans, it is going back to World War.
The testing phase for CoD-WW2 begins in September.
