Blops 4 is getting a couple of private betas with PlayStation owners – who have pre-ordered the game, of course – getting an exclusive beta all to themselves starting 5pm BST / 6pm CEST on 3rd August. There will then be a second beta the following weekend with Xbox owners joining in the fun.

You will be able to play as ten of the Specialist characters listed below over a number of game modes including Team Deathmatch, Hardpoint, Domination, Search & Destroy and Control. Here’s the Specialists on offer:
- Recon
- Crash
- Battery
- Torque
- Ruin
- Seraph
- Ajax
- Firebreak
- Nomad
- Prophet
All the game modes will be playable on four maps listed below, and PlayStation gamers will also get two extra maps because Sony likes throwing money at Activision.
- Frequency:Â A covert listening station deep in the mountainous region of Hunan Province is being used to track strategic targets across the globe.
- Contraband:Â Surveillance of an international arms smuggling operation has uncovered this shipping hub on a remote, uncharted island off the coast of Colombia.
- Seaside:Â An anti-government protest in this quaint coastal Spanish town grew out of control and forced a military shutdown.
- Payload:Â A defensive ICBM launch facility deep in an Icelandic mountain range has been infiltrated by hostile forces attempting to steal a nuclear warhead.
If that isn’t enough there will also be another beta to test the Blackout mode in September.
