Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4's Open Beta Will Include Multiplayer, Warzone, and Even a Campaign Mission
Activision says the beta adds a single-player mission for the first time, alongside six multiplayer maps and nine modes.
- On August 14, Xbox CEO Asha Sharma announced the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 beta will begin August 21 for pre-orders, marking the first time a CoD beta includes a campaign mission alongside multiplayer and Warzone.
- Activision aims to restore player trust following last year's poorly received Black Ops release, using extensive beta content to demonstrate MW4 is a high-quality, fully featured title rather than an update.
- Early Access runs August 21 to 25 for pre-orders, followed by the open beta on August 28, which introduces the campaign mission Entrenched and the new Warzone Resurgence map, Zodiac.
- Available on Xbox, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch, the beta reaches broad audiences; however, Nintendo Switch owners must wait until the open phase beginning August 28 to participate.
- Modern Warfare launches October 23, 2026, shifting the action to the Korean Peninsula amid a hypothetical full-scale invasion by North Korea that threatens global stability.
