Will early access to the BF6 beta be available for those who pre-order the Phantom edition?

I haven’t seen a source that actually quotes or refers to that statement coming from EA. Only news websites that claim that preorder gives you access, on EA pages and in stores it doesn’t mention that anywhere. Only news websites claim that. But on the open beta page from EA it literally says that there are only 2 options and preorder is not listed there. So I wouldn’t count on it unless someone from EA actually confirms it.

EA_Rtas​ can you chime in on this?

Please see our thread here, Lock and Load for the Battlefield 6 Open Beta | EA Forums - 12396772, and keep an eye on it in case of any updates.

  • Early access opens on August 7 at 8:00 UTC (1AM PT)
    • If you signed up for Battlefield Labs before July 31, you don’t need a code. Just log in with the EA Account you registered with Battlefield Labs.
    • If you didn’t sign up for Battlefield Labs, you can watch select creators during the reveal streams beginning on July 31 on Twitch to unlock Early Access.
    • EA Play Pro players will also receive early access to the Open Beta 

Also see https://www.ea.com/en/games/battlefield/battlefield-6/faq. 

Not everything you read on the internet is true.

Thanks. :)

    So for us that don't live in the US and were unable to watch twitch streams at 4am in our local time. How can we get the codes for early access? I feel that this is a big F you to the rest of your community who don't live within the US.

      Excellent question.

      I would offer / argue the most good faith approach would be to just open it up for everyone starting on the 7th after the problems they have already had.

      One other alternative would be to push their "content creator" contractors to re-run the multiplayer event for Beta key credit when they are offline...?

      If you had access to the labs then you had that opportunity in the months prior? Otherwise beta access opens 2 days later to everyone? 

      Can't please everyone, but I sure as hell wouldn't be spending money to pre-order a game in order to have access to a beta 2 days earlier.

        Not everyone got into Labs or tried... which I would argue was another miss by EA DICE

        To be more clear, if they had stated some of the "rewards" for Labs up front, that may have encouraged more people to ensure they got signed up.
