Open Beta/Release Date…

Couple questions if anyone knows and can help. 

Will 2042 be on Xbox game pass right at release date? 


If you’re planning on accessing the game through Xbox game pass, will you be able to play the beta? (Everywhere I look it says pre order the game to access beta).

Does anyone have a confirmed date for the Xbox beta?

  • Oh really??? Not questioning you but I’m assuming you’ve seen this confirmed somewhere? 

  • It might come to game pass a year or two after release, but I highly doubt it would at launch unless MS strike a deal with EA/DICE.

    I believe it will come to EA Access so that is the alternative unless you buy the game.

    Edit: will just have to wait and see what they say closer to launch.

  • @MarioTx13 If cross-play is working as EA DICE hope, I would expect the Open Beta to be on the same timeline across all platforms... so sometime next month.
  • @MarioTx13 1. Yes it will be on Xbox GamePass Ultimate but only a 10 hour trial unless you buy the game itself.

    2. You would get access to the Open Beta but not the technical test or the first part of the beta that is only for those who preorder.

    3. Sometime in September

    @CyberDyme That was never actually confirmed by EA.

    Just the news sites that claim to have "inside sources".

    My bet is it won't be until the middle of the month or later
