Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 was initially announced for current-generation game consoles only. Then, after the massive outcry from fans still rocking the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, Treyarch brought in developers Beenox and Mercenary Technology to port the game over to last-generation platforms as well. As it turns out, however, this decision was not without sacrifices.
To compete with the 476 different Xbox One bundles releasing this holiday, Sony and Activision just announced the Black Ops 3-inspired PlayStation 4.
The closed beta for Call of Duty: Black Ops III started last week on PlayStation 4 for anyone that had pre-ordered the title, and its been receiving very positive remarks so far. In order to get even more players in on the fun, Activision has removed the pre-order restriction and opened it up to the public for its final day, before the beta closes on PS4 later tonight. If that’s not enough time to try it, however, the Xbox One and PC beta starts up this Wednesday, August 26, and will presumably run for the same length of time that the PS4 did.
Call of Duty: Black Ops III launches November 6 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.
Did you preorder Call of Duty: Black Ops III to gain access into the closed multiplayer beta? If so, the wait is almost over – PS4 users can try out the game exclusively from 8/19 – 8/23, where it’s presumed (but unconfirmed) that the Xbox One beta will then go into effect as well.
