EA's DICE studio has blown the lid off the multiplayer for its upcoming military shooter Battlefield 6 and held a beta to give players a taste of the game and generate feedback. Battlefield 6's first public beta was available to everyone, but after an early release and two weekends of play, it has officially ended.

The Battlefield 6 open beta was the first chance for players to experience the game's multiplayer before its full release on Oct. 10. Those with early access got a couple extra days to play and both of the open beta weekends were a rousing success, finally ending in the early hours of Monday, Aug. 18 (1 a.m. PT, to be precise).

Fans could visit Battlefield's website to get info about the open beta, which required linking your EA account to your platform account. PC players also had to configure their system to Secure Boot as well (see below).

The beta was playable on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X and S.
