Don't miss your last chance to get into Battlefield 6 early access beta with surprise Twitch Drops

Send Push

The doors to the open beta early access period were firmly shut last week following the Battlefield 6 Twitch Drops campaign that ran during the multiplayer reveal, but EA has reopened them to give you another shot at getting in.

EA unveiled the first reveal trailer for Battlefield 6 a few weeks ago and followed up with a multiplayer reveal trailer last week. We all enjoy a good trailer, but the multiplayer reveal was particularly hyped due to the Battlefield 6 Twitch Drops campaign that saw players tuning into livestreams to grab a code for the open beta early access window.

Players who got in will have the opportunity to play two full days of the beta before anyone else, prior to the first beta weekend kicking off.

There was another way to gain access outside of the Battlefield 6 Twitch Drops campaign, and that was to sign up for Battlefield Labs (EA's testing ground for select players to provide feedback on gameplay features) before Thursday, July 31. So it was a rather narrow window of opportunity unless you've been keeping up with news about the game and are focused on every snippet about the upcoming beta.

It appears EA might think so too, as it's running another Battlefield 6 Twitch Drops campaign to give players one final chance to get into the open beta's early access period. Or perhaps the company knows that making early access an exclusive thing would make us even more eager at the thought of getting in before anyone else.

Here's how to bag yourself a spot and get an early taste of the beta when it launches this Thursday, August 7. Don't forget, the Battlefield 6 beta preload went live on Monday, August 4, complete with details on the PC specs, so make sure you've got that sorted before the gates open.

All you need to do now is participate in the Battlefield 6 Twitch Drops campaign to nab a code!

Battlefield 6 Twitch Drops explained

EA took to Twitter via the

to inform players about the new Battlefield 6 Twitch Drops campaign, which will run throughout the entire early access beta period. Simply watch 30 minutes of any creator streaming Battlefield 6 on Twitch on Thursday, August 7 and Friday, August 8. That's all there is to it!

No specific times have been given, so presumably as soon as it hits midnight in your region, you can start racking up that watch time as we count down to the open beta early access when doors open at 8am UTC.

Some folks encountered issues with code redemption last week, so this time around, EA has provided instructions on how to redeem your Battlefield 6 Twitch Drops code for early beta access on its website.

You'll find the beta client on the storefront on your platform of choice, so just ensure you have an EA account, you're signed in, and that it's linked to your desired platform. That being said, if you're over on Steam, you don't need the EA App but you will need an EA account. If you use the Epic Games Store, you'll need both the EA App and an EA account.
