BO6 Open Beta Download/Preload + Info (latest update info too)

[AkiraJkr]

To access the Early Access Beta on Friday, just download Call of Duty from your library after you redeem your code from https://callofduty.com/betaredeem though you might need to add Warzone to your library first, if it does not show up after redeeming the code for your platform.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1938090/Call_of_Duty/
You can quick-launch/install COD through this:
steam://launch/1938090

To install ONLY the Beta, go to Call of Duty's Properties > DLCs and uncheck everything BUT your Black Ops 6 DLCs, if you have any.
Vault/Standard Edition owners DO NOT need to redeem any codes to access the Early Access Beta.


The Beta is currently already preloaded/included in the Base COD HQ files as the "mp24" folder since the latest update, and can be safely deleted during the beta(at risk of downloading again if a update drops) or once the Beta is over, incase you're not playing/have no interest.

The Open Beta will be available next weekend.

i did put my beta code into steam and i had a message saying that it's been linked to my steam account but I don't see any bo6 in the dlc propreties of my game. Is that normal ?

So from what I'm understanding from seeing this thread:

If you have Pre-Purchased Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 (As in you have brought the game via a Pre-Order): Then you should see a DLC Package when you go Properties - DLC

If you HAVENT Pre-Purchased Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, and have got a Beta Code through the means of, lets say: IGN giving out the codes
> Go to https://callofduty.com/betaredeem
> If you have got the beta code and put it into the website, there should be a 12 digit (numerical) and character (letters) code that you then redeem on Steam.
> I'm guessing there's either some bug that's going around regarding that, or when the beta drops: We've got to download that 33/66GB (Depending if you have COD HQ Installed), even though Pre-Load happened two days ago

Correct me if I am wrong anyone

So I've looked around and apparently if you've installed COD HQ: You've got it downloaded, since COD HQ (for me at least), has downloaded Call of Duty: BO6 (and for me, one part of MW2)

I found this video on YouTube about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2V7Xl6Vl2SQ
If you don't want to watch it, basically:
> Load up Call of Duty
> Once your in, press on the Gear Icon to get up the settings pop-up
> Go Manage Files in More
From there, you should see: BO6, MW3, MW2, and DMZ
> If you hover over BO6, and it says uninstall, in comparison to MW3 or MW2 where (for me) it says "Manage Files, Uninstall": Then the Beta should already be loaded and ready to play!

That's what I'm taking from it. I'll keep updated on this when the beta releases

Did you try starting the beta? It might take two tries for it to recognize you own it.

Thank you AkiraJkr and Roose for your comments and for your help.

I gained early access to the beta with a code from Comcast, but I had no idea how to install the beta.

Unfortunately it's too late for early access as I just now found this thread. I still wanted to say thanks though and give you both an award.

Thank you again.

EDIT: Sorry AkiraJkr, I gave your award to the wrong comment. My bad.
