The beta is now open to everyone.

The beta for Battlefield 2042 opened up to everyone today regardless of pre-order status. DICE and EA invite all people to try out the upcoming futuristic military FPS ahead of the game's official launch on November 19, 2021. This beta will officially end on October 10 at 7AM (UTC) or 12AM (PT).

It must be stated again, because apparently this isn't clear to a lot of people playing the beta, that this beta is now several months old. There are a number of issues and changes that have already been addressed since this beta was split off from the main development branch. Those changes will be present in the final release of the game.

You can download this open beta for your platform of choice, unless your platform of choice is the Nintendo Switch.
