Destiny 2 PS4 and Xbox One Beta Start Times
Get the Destiny 2 PS4 and Xbox One beta start times for your time zone.
The Destiny 2 beta is inching closer, and Guardians across the globe are struggling to figure out when the Destiny 2 PS4 and Xbox One betas start in their time zone. Part of this is because today is the first day that you can download the Destiny 2 beta and pre-load it, and gamers have no doubt misunderstood this to mean the beta starts today. It does not.
Destiny 2 PS4 and Xbox One Beta Start Times
Depending on the console that you’re playing on and the time zone that you live in, the start time for the Destiny 2 early access and open betas varies. For example, PS4 players get first crack at the early access beta, and will have a full 24 hours to enjoy it before their Xbox One counterparts are able to join. Not as rough as it is on PC players, though, who must wait until sometime in August for their beta.
