The upcoming Battlefield 6 is gearing up for its open beta phase this weekend, accessible on both consoles and PC. Sony is offering PlayStation 5 gamers a special incentive: an exclusive soldier appearance when the full game launches. By participating in the Battlefield 6 open beta on your PS5, you’ll unlock the “Advance Party” character skin, which will be available in the complete game this October.
Battlefield Studios, the game’s developers, have indicated that the character customizations will generally be realistic, contrasting with the pop-culture focus found in games like Call of Duty. The Advance Party skin is a testament to this, featuring muted colors with subtle blue highlights for a practical and believable military aesthetic.
Don’t forget, the first beta period spans August 9-10. A second beta weekend is scheduled from August 14-17. This beta will provide ample maps and game modes for testing. Plus, several bonuses are up for grabs if you’re planning to purchase the full game:
Battlefield 6: Open beta August 9-10 rewards
- Seeker soldier skin
- All-Terrain soldier skin
- Dominion weapon package
- Lights Out player-card background
Battlefield 6: Open beta August 14-17 rewards
