The news of the postponement of Battlefield 2042 arrived a few days ago it was a bolt from the blue, despite the signs that had already started circulating on the web in the previous hours. But now users are asking themselves an important question: when will the Battlefield 2042 beta be?
Battlefield 2042 is the new game in the DICE series, published by Electronic Arts, set in the near future where the war sees technology as an increasingly important presence. Furthermore, for the first time in the history of the series, BF2042 will do without the single player campaign, focusing on content for multiplayer.
Among the main sources of inspiration for the new game in the shooter series, which returns to the present day (or almost) after the brackets of Battlefield 1 and Battlefield V, there are the historians Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4still today among the experiences that fans of the series remember with greater pleasure.

Speaking of previous games in the series, in BF2042 there will be a particular mode called Portal which will re-propose some of the most iconic settings of the franchise. Here you will find more details on the modality.
Initially scheduled for October 22, the game was postponed a few days ago by about a month, after a worrying period of radio silence by Electronic Arts and DICE. This will also affect the Beta of Battlefield 2042, which even, according to the official website, was supposed to be available in early September – which obviously did not happen. When will this highly anticipated beta arrive?
Possible dates for the Battlefield 2042 beta
To answer this question, always well-informed insider Tom Henderson comes to the rescue, who usually isn’t wrong – or very rarely when it comes to Call of Duty and Battlefield.
In a tweet published on his profile a few hours ago, Henderson claims to know what will be the dates of the Beta of Battlefield 2042, which, just like that of Call of Duty: Vanguard, will be divided into a period dedicated exclusively to those who they pre-ordered the game, and a period open to everyone.
Here are the dates released by the insider:
- Beta with Early Access (via preorder) starting October 6
- Open Beta from 8 October
