The Star Wars Battlefront 2 beta will take place between October 6-9. That being said, we’ve broken down the details of the Star Wars Battlefront 2 beta below, so be sure to take a look to see when it takes place. This is pretty standard practice for betas in this day and age, as the developers want to make sure paying fans are getting access to the game’s beta so that they can help with any last-minute testing that needs to occur. The only other option is to buy the crates.The Star Wars 2 Battlefront 2 beta is set to take place in early October, and fans who preorder the game can expect to get a few days early access before those of the public who don’t. Players get a daily crate with some random goodies, including occasional ‘crate parts’ for eventually crafting a crate. Whereas in the original game players unlocked weapons and cards by completing various tasks, Battlefront 2 dishes these items out through crates.

Unfortunately, there are also some issues that have players upset, particularly the ‘progression’ system that relies heavily on crates.

There’s a lot to like about the game, including excellent graphics offering more dynamic, detailed environments than the original game. There’s also a preview for the campaign, but that isn’t playable in the beta. The beta, which can be downloaded now for Xbox One, PS4, and PC, offers players an opportunity to play online multiplayer in ‘Strike,’ ‘Galactic Assault,’ and ‘Starfighter Assault.’ There’s a very limited number of maps, plus access to ‘Arcade’ for local play with AI. The #StarWarsBattlefrontII Beta has been extended two more days! Play until Wednesday, October 11.
