With the hype-train following Overwatch lately, this news excited many fans. The beta has been announced to take place between 5th May-8th May
It will be available for or consoles/PC, but the early access starts May 2nd, and you can prepurchase the key now to get a go at it earlier than the rest. If your playing on PC for the beta, you need to download the battle.net desktop app, and for PS4 and Xbox 1 you can just get it off the games store (for free). There will be 21 heroes available for use during the beta, along with 12 maps compatible with 4 gamemodes. This beta will be a quick refresher for the actual launch on May 24th, and will be the big decider whether it’s worth buying the full game or not.
Happy hunting!
