After the community cracked a new puzzle, the open beta of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War has been extended on all platforms – PS4, Xbox One, and PC. And the extra time can be well utilized.
Today, the open beta was supposed to end: Currently, the open beta on PS4, Xbox One, and PC is ongoing. All interested parties can currently get their first impression of the multiplayer of the new Call of Duty 2020. This testing phase was actually supposed to end today, October 19, at 7:00 PM German time.
But as Treyarch and Activision recently announced, you now get a little more extra time to enjoy the new CoD Cold War. The beta has been extended.
Black Ops Cold War extends beta – All Info
How did the extension come about? In short: The community was able to solve a new puzzle. Through the Black Ops Cold War teaser website Pawn Takes Pawn, which was used to prepare the reveals of the multiplayer, zombies, and the campaign, a hidden message was decoded using codes. As a reward, there was an extra day for the open beta on all platforms.
These are the important times for the extension: The open beta of Black Ops Cold War now officially runs until 7:00 PM on October 20, meaning until Tuesday evening. You can play for an additional 24 hours.
That’s why it’s worth visiting the Cold War beta now
What should you use the extra time for? Who should check it out again? Here are 3 reasons to still visit the beta now. This is how you make the most of the extension:
One more day to game: In general, you now have 24 more hours to get your first impression of the game. The open beta, which is truly open to all interested parties, only began at 7:00 PM on October 17. Especially for players on PC and Xbox who did not pre-order Cold War, this is a good opportunity to see a little more of the game.
So if you haven’t had enough of the game yet, it’s time to keep playing!
All attachments unlocked: Moreover, all attachments for all available weapons have now been unlocked during the beta. So you can try everything at will and do not have to unlock certain attachments first. Especially if you haven’t had much time to play, this is a good opportunity to experiment and get a better impression of the weapons and their possibilities.
So if you haven’t tried or seen everything around the weapons yet – now is your chance!
One more day for old and new beta rewards: You also have one more day to secure the rewards from the beta.
You could already earn the first weapon blueprint for the finished Black Ops Cold War if you reached level 10 in the beta.
Recently, there has also been another reward. Who reaches level 10 in the beta can also secure 3 tier skips for the current battle pass of Modern Warfare and Warzone.
For mere participation, there is already one tier skip as a gift.
In short: If you haven’t reached level 10 due to lack of time (especially on Xbox and PC), you now have a little extra time to push your beta level.
And speaking of beta: Player reaches 145 kills in the CoD Cold War beta – This is how he did it.
