Activision and Infinity Ward have detailed the beta sessions for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4. The game is set to launch on consoles and PC next October 23, 2026.

First, those who pre-order the FPS will get early access to the beta from August 21 through 25. Note that this will not be the case for Switch 2 users, who will have to wait until the second session, which is open to everyone (no pre-order required) and will take place from August 28 through September 1, 2026.

Finally, we’d like to note that the Call of Duty NEXT event will return on August 21.
