Wondering how to get early access to Modern Warfare 3? Activision has finally revealed all the key details of its upcoming shooter title, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, thanks to the recent in-game launch event.

During this event, the developers confirmed that an Open Beta will be hosted over two consecutive weekends, allowing Modern Warfare 3 fans to get their hands on the title prior to the official launch. So if you're also interested in participating in the Early Access program, here's all you need to know about obtaining access to the Modern Warfare 3 Open Beta and its Early Access period.

To gain access to Modern Warfare 3's Open Beta, you have to pre-order the game. You can either pre-order from a participating retailer or a digital store.

If you choose to buy the game digitally from platforms like PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, Battle.net, or Steam, you won’t need a code, as you will be automatically registered for the Open Beta. You can download the beta version when it becomes available.

However, if you decide to buy the game physically or from another online retailer, make sure to obtain a code either on your receipt or via email. The code consists of a combination of 13 characters resembling this format: XXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX. If you don’t receive a code or can’t locate it, please contact your retailer for assistance.

Players who pre-order digital editions of the game will also receive Early Access to the Campaign, which will be available up to a week ahead of launch.

Once you have your code in hand, follow these steps to redeem it on the Call of Duty website:

  1. Visit callofduty.com/betaredeem and carefully follow the instructions displayed on that page in order to secure your place in early access.
  2. Enter your code into the designated box and click “Submit.”
  3. Then select your preferred platform (PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC) and region (Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific).
  4. After redeeming your code, you will receive an email with instructions on downloading and playing the beta version when it becomes available.

It’s worth noting that the Open Beta version does not represent the final game and may differ in some aspects.
