Ghost Recon Breakpoint beta dates, preload info, and details

Ghost Recon Breakpoint figures to be a big player in this year’s Q4 games lineup. As a co-op shooter set in an open world and built from the foundation set by Ghost Recon Wildlands, you can sign me up for that, but that doesn’t mean everyone is as convinced as I am. Luckily, Ghost Recon Wildlands will hold a beta on all platforms from September 5-9.

Register for the Ghost Recon Breakpoint beta

If you're already convinced you want to hop into the beta, check out our Ghost Recon Breakpoint guide for how to get guaranteed access, or at least register for a chance. In a nutshell, those who pre-order the game or are Uplay+ subscribers are in, and everyone else must register for a chance.

For players who aren’t sure if they’d like to buy the game, this presents a good opportunity to check out Ghost Recon Breakpoint before dropping cash. Unfortunately, dropping cash in some form or fashion (pre-ordering or subscribing to Uplay+) is the only way to guarantee access. If you’d rather not do either, be sure to register for access as soon as possible.

We’ll be hopping into the Ghost Recon Breakpoint beta from September 5 to September 9, and we’ll keep building our Ghost Recon Breakpoint coverage in the lead up to its official release on October 4, 2019.
