Star Wars: Battlefront II multiplayer open beta begins October 6

If you’re awaiting the new Star Wars: Battlefront II, you can get an early sneak peek of its multiplayer beta before the full game launch. Publisher Electronic Arts announced today that the multiplayer beta will be available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One starting October 6, though those who preordered it receive access October 4. The beta ends October 9.

When developers DICE, Criterion Games, and Motive Studios released the reboot of Star Wars: Battlefront in November 2015, it became an instant hit and sold over 14 million copies within half a year. Its sequel, which launches November 17, is highly anticipated and already has downloadable content lined up for after it hits shelves.
