Battlefield fans still have plenty of time to enjoy the current open beta available on console and PC.
EA and DICE decided to put the game through its paces before the eventual November release date, having already promised some major changes.
The open beta has been left unaffected by the change of release date and has been available to play for the past few days.
However, time is running out before everything comes to an end and fans have to wait a few months to get another chance.
WHEN DOES THE BATTLEFIELD 5 OPEN BETA END?
The BF5 open beta is scheduled to end on Tuesday, September 11 on all platforms.
That means everyone on PS4, Xbox One and PC will have to end their game time, regardless of pre-orders or EA Access subscriptions.
The official end time for the Battlefield beta has been set for 3pm in the UK.
EA and DICE have said nothing about extending the current open beta past this point.
So there’s plenty of time left to play the Battlefield 5 open beta on PS4, Xbox One and PC.
Here are the system requirements for all platforms: “Xbox One players will need an internet connection and an Xbox Live Gold account to play the Battlefield V Open Beta. For PlayStation 4, all owners connected to the internet can get in on the action.
“If you’ll be playing on PC, you’ll want to know if your hardware is up to snuff. Minimum and recommended specs are below. Note that these are unique to the Open Beta, not necessarily to the final game of Battlefield V.”
