The open beta for Battlefield 4 will begin on October 1st. It will be available on all current-gen platforms: PS3, Xbox 360, and PC. Next-gen doesn't get a beta because the consoles aren't out by then. Sorry folks!

It's unclear when the exclusive beta access included with Medal of Honor Warfighter will be made available. However, VideoGamer points out that BF3's exclusive beta opened 48 hours before it was free for all. History may repeat itself here.

And while the next-gen version won't receive a beta, EA wants to remind players that any stats earned in the current-gen version will transfer into the next. And Battlefield 4 will be available on day-one of both console launches. And like so many cross-gen games, $10 will upgrade you from a current-gen to next-gen version.

      After watching some of the proper multiplayer footage, Gamescom stuff, I'm getting quite excited for this. Before I had just taken for granted that it would be pretty good and I'd play it a decent amount, but now I'm pumped!

        Battlefield 3 Premium members, those who pre-order Battlefield 4 Digital Deluxe Edition and owners of Medal of Honor: Warfighter (Limited or Digital Deluxe Edition) will have access to the exclusive beta early October for three days. Following that, the open beta will kick off. - offical battlefield website

        Why do I get the feeling that "beta" isn't?

        Fixed!

          This is bullshit. BF3's beta was a proper beta. It was buggy as hell, saw a shit ton of changes, and was unplayable for days on end.

        It's a good question. Can you upgrade across platforms?

        According to the link, no. You can only go PS3-PS4 or X360-Xbone.
