However, Activision just revealed a new way to jump in early without spending a dime. [jwplayer ulMZS35X] If you\u2019re on PlayStation 4, there\u2019s a good chance you already checked out the Beta last weekend. But if you\u2019re on Xbox or PC, October 15 is your first opportunity to jump into Treyarch\u2019s new title. Those that pre-purchase the game on their platform of choice get two days of early access. For everyone else, the Beta will be completely public across all platforms from October 17 onwards. If you can\u2019t wait that long, but you also can\u2019t preorder the game just yet, fear not. Activision has announced another method of getting into the Beta early. It couldn\u2019t be simpler and you\u2019ll be able to start grinding in no time with this new feature. Here\u2019s everything you need to know. Accessing the Black Ops Cold War Beta through Twitch If you just can\u2019t wait to try out Black Ops Cold War, Twitch will come in handy over the next few days. Just for watching your favorite Call of Duty streamers, you\u2019ll be able to earn access to the Beta in no time at all. Unlike other games that have used a similar drop system through Twitch, there\u2019s no luck involved here. All you have to do is watch Twitch streams and you\u2019ll be handed Beta access without a hassle. In fact, it\u2019s guaranteed for every single person that wants one. All three major platforms will be live at the exact same time. However, this method is only applicable to those on PC as you\u2019ll need Battle.Net for it to work. Follow the steps below to get access as soon as possible: 1. Ensure your Battle.Net account is linked to Twitch Click here to check your connections on Twitch. It\u2019s here that you\u2019ll be able to find the Battle.Net application and link it directly to your Twitch account. Once that\u2019s sorted, you\u2019ll then need to check your connections through Battle.Net as well. Click through here to verify the link between Twitch and Battle.Net. 2. Watch four hours of Black Ops Cold War on Twitch As soon as the Beta goes live, select Twitch streamers will have drops-enabled on their channels. You\u2019ll need to pay close attention and make sure that the stream you\u2019re watching has an icon with drops clearly visible. So long as you\u2019ve found a streamer that meets the criteria, sit back, enjoy four hours of gameplay, and just like that the Beta will be yours on PC. The Beta goes live on October 15 at 10 AM PT. Meaning that you\u2019ll be able to start playing at 2PM PT at the earliest if you watch all four hours right out of the gate. If you\u2019re happy to wait or simply can\u2019t keep Twitch open for the four hours, the Beta will be public on October 17 at 10 AM PT.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to access the Black Ops Cold War Beta early through Twitch Infinity Ward \/ TwitchThe Black Ops Cold War Beta will soon be available across all platforms with early access for those with a preorder.
