How Do You Gain Access to the Elden Ring Closed Beta?
The period for closed beta registration is now over, so unfortunately, if you hadn’t signed up, you won’t be getting into Elden Ring’s beta.
For those that did manage to sign up in time, Bandai Namco will be issuing codes via email to 50,000 applicants ahead of the beta. If you’ve been selected, you’ll receive a code on 9th November, so check your inbox this week to see if you’re in luck!
What Is Included in the Elden Ring Closed Beta?
The Elden Ring beta allows you to play the opening hours of the game. What does this mean? Well, presumably it’ll allow you to choose your character and get a taste of the game’s combat and open world, letting you explore the Lands Between during each session. It’s an online network test, which means you’ll need to be connected in order to take part. It’s not been stated whether you need a PlayStation Plus subscription in order to play the beta, but we assume you do.
On Which Platforms Can You Play the Elden Ring Closed Beta?
The Elden Ring closed beta test will be available on PS5 and PS4, as well as Xbox One and Xbox Series systems.
Does the Elden Ring Closed Beta Include Crossplay?
Elden Ring’s closed network test will feature crossplay, but only across generations, not across platforms. If you’re playing the beta on PS5, you can play with others on both PS5 and PS4, but not with those playing on Xbox consoles.
That about does it for our Elden Ring beta test guide. Are you hoping to play it later this month, or are you waiting for the full release? Let us know in the comments section below.
