Battlefield 2042 Playtest: How To Join + Starting Date

BY Marcus Kade • 5 years AGO • 2 MIN READ

The Battlefield 2042 playtest is merely a constrained session to observe if the game functions properly. In-house monitoring could only test as much, so the devs will most likely seek out a wider audience to emphasize attributes such as database consistency and crossplay, the latter of which was a contributing factor in 2042 technical playtest’s postponement.

How To Join

  • Only EA playtesters will be eligible to partake in the Battlefield 2042 technical test. Gamers who want to register for the technical test should go CLICK HERE and set up an account. EA emphasizes that this will not ensure a slot in the technical test and that notifying the company will not improve your odds.
  • Potential testers only need to register and check your inbox to see if you are lucky enough to be chosen. You can also register for the 2042 open beta while you’re at it!

Technical Test VS. Open Beta, What’s The Difference?

There will be far more restrictions in technical tests compared to an open beta. The beta will give a more reliable reflection of the final release. The technical test’s goals aren’t specified in the discussion, but they’re almost certainly all linked to the game’s quality.

The technical test has been postponed to allow for an additional period to incorporate crossplay, so it most probably is a big priority of the test. Gamers from varying platforms will be able to join the same queue. The technical test will only have crossplay for a small percentage of gamers using Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, and PC, according to the briefing.
