Players looking forward to collecting the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 achievements will be able to get an early taste of the game soon, as Activision has announced the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 beta dates. Excitingly, players on all platforms will be able to enjoy the Xbox FPS game's beta this year, and Xbox Game Pass subscribers can join both the early access and open beta weekends.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 dates revealed for all platforms and Game Pass subscribers

Similar to previous years, Activision's upcoming shooter will be available to play early on two different weekends this year, one weekend for early access players and another for all players via Black Ops 6's open beta. While Activision has yet to reveal the content and rewards available in this year's betas, the Call of Duty blog tells us: "Experience the game-changing Omnimovement and other gameplay innovations for yourself across a variety of brand-new maps built by Treyarch, as well as building your own loadouts, accessing a variety of weapons, equipment, and Perks, and dropping in with your squad across a number of modes."

Players who have preordered the Vault Edition will have a chance to check out the four Hunters vs. Hunted Operators (Park, Adler, Brutus, and Klaus), as well as the five Mastercraft Weapon Collection weapons during both weekends.

Early Access weekend — August 30 to September 4

Everything kicks off next month with the Early Access weekend, which runs between Friday, August 30, and Wednesday, September 4. This weekend will be available for players who have preordered the game on Xbox, PlayStation, and PC, as well as Xbox Game Pass subscribers.

Open Beta weekend — September 6 to September 9

The open beta weekend will be available for all players across Xbox, PlayStation, and PC. Everyone is welcome to dive in and have some fun between Friday, September 6, and Monday, September 9.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 will launch on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC, as well as leave our list of upcoming Game Pass games, on October 25.
