Droves of Call of Duty players will be busy all weekend following the beginning of the Black Ops 6 beta. Developed by Treyarch, the newest entry in the beloved Black Ops series has introduced new maps and an intricated omni-movement system while bringing back the fan-favorite classic Prestige system. With the game not set to arrive until October 25, 2024, players have input their pre-order codes to experience the game beforehand, but when does the early access COD Black Ops 6 beta end? Here is the answer.

The COD Black Ops 6 early access beta will end on Wednesday, September 4, 2024, at 1 p.m. ET. That means beginning on August 30, the beta period will last five days down the very hour. Then, the Open Beta period will begin on September 6 and end on September 9.

If you're one of the many who pre-ordered the game or happened to grab a code, there's no better time than the present to play the game. Unfortunately, once 1 p.m. ET on September 4 comes and goes, you must wait until the "Open Beta" period begins on September 6.

For those looking to play the game and wondering how to acquire a code, your best option is pre-ordering the game. Doing so through various retail outlets or online platforms such as Steam, Battle.net, and the Epic Games Store will guarantee COD Black Ops 6 beta access before it ends.

Otherwise, a few additional methods exist to get your hands on a code. You can tune in to one of the many streamers playing the game across Twitch, YouTube, and other streaming websites. Some are handing out beta codes to their chats. Additionally, you may have the chance to catch a beta code on social media platforms like X, where some accounts are posting them regularly.

Once you receive the beta code, you must redeem your early access beta token, and then you can play the game.
