Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 Beta Extended 12 Hours
The beta will now end at 10 PM PT / 1 AM ET on September 2, with double progression XP and double weapon XP available until the beta closes
The Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 beta has been extended by 12 hours and will now end at 10 PM PT / 1 AM ET on September 2. This extension gives players more time to grind for rewards and reach the level cap of 30, which unlocks special rewards and a weapon blueprint.
The beta was originally scheduled to end at 1 p.m. EDT on Tuesday, Sept. 1, but Infinity Ward has announced the extension, citing player engagement and feedback. Double progression XP and double weapon XP will be available until the beta closes, allowing players to maximize their progress.
The game is set to launch on October 23 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Switch 2, and PC. Players who preorder the game will have access to the single-player campaign a week before the game's launch, on October 16.
The beta has included a variety of maps, modes, and guns, including the much-anticipated Kill Block, which was limited to the Gunfight mode. The level cap of 30 allows players to unlock more weapons, killstreaks, and perks, as well as beta rewards that can be equipped when the full release rolls around.
## Why it matters The extension of the beta is significant for players who are looking to get the most out of the game before its launch. With the extra time, players can complete challenges, unlock rewards, and get a head start on the game's progression system. The game's launch on October 23 will mark the first time a Call of Duty game has been released on a Nintendo console in over a decade.
The game's developer, Infinity Ward, has been actively engaging with the community and making updates to the beta based on feedback. This includes addressing TTK criticisms and tweaking the weapons, as well as pushing out changes to beta testers.
## What happens next After the beta wraps up, the next time players will be able to play MW4 multiplayer is when the game launches on October 23. The game's single-player campaign will unlock a week before that for players who preorder. With the game's launch just around the corner, players are eagerly anticipating the full release and the opportunity to experience the game's multiplayer and single-player modes in their entirety.
