PlayStation 4 players get first dibs for Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War this weekend for the alpha test, Activision has announced.

Pre-load the Alpha from the Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare or Warzone main menu starting September 17 (tonight!) at 11PM. The approximate download size will be 25GB, and once downloaded, access the Alpha menu to experience their first taste of deniable operations in several game modes across four new maps.

During the Alpha, multiplayer modes such as Team Deathmatch, Kill Confirmed and Domination will return, while players can also enjoy new game mode Combined Arms: Domination, a new 12v12, vehicle-inclusive twist on traditional Domination across two larger maps.

The Alpha will end on September 21 at 1AM, with all participants receiving an exclusive Calling Card for participating in the action.

Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War is scheduled for a November 13, 2020 release for the PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Series, and PC.
