Battlefield 2042 Doesn't Require PS Plus, But Requires Xbox Live Gold - Open Beta Dates

Really Bad News for Microsoft Console Owners
Battlefield 2042 Doesn't Require PS Plus, But Requires Xbox Live Gold - Open Beta Dates

To participate in the Battlefield 2042 open beta, you will need to acquire an Xbox Live Gold subscription, while PlayStation players do not need to purchase PS Plus at all. The announcement was made via the @bravoINTEL Twitter account, the official Battlefield 2042 news account:

The Battlefield 2042 Beta on PlayStation does not require PlayStation Plus. Xbox players will need Xbox Live Gold.

A quick look at the FAQ page on the game's beta site confirms this fact. It says the beta will be available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X, but those using an Xbox console will need to purchase an Xbox Live Gold subscription. The answer also added the fact that PlayStation does not require a PS Plus subscription.

We only learned about the beta testing date yesterday: the open test will take place from October 8 to 9. Battlefield 2042 is scheduled to release on November 19, 2021 for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series X, and PC.
