Sony is launching a new Beta Program, where gamers can sign-up to take part in various betas. Previously, you had to register to each beta individually, but this new program will make it easier to apply to betas from a centralised place.
According to Sid Shuman, Senior Director, Sony Interactive Entertainment Content Communications:
The Beta Program at PlayStation will create an easy, centralized place for you to register your interest in a range of future PlayStation betas. A single registration for Beta Program at PlayStation will allow you to express interest in gaining beta access to test participating games for the PS5 console and PC, new PS5 console features, PlayStation App features, and even user experience features on PlayStation.com. You only need to sign up once to express interest in these various betas, and if you receive an invitation to a specific beta, it’s up to you to decide whether you’d like to participate or not.
Here are the requirements:
- Players must have a valid account for PlayStation Network in good standing with a current email address. Accounts with restrictions or violations may not be eligible for participation.
- Players must live in the region where Beta Program at PlayStation is available.
- Players must meet the legal age requirement for their region.
It’s free to join the program, which you can do here: playstation.com/beta-program-at-playstation/. Please check back later if the page is not yet available in your region.
By joining this program, it enables you to be considered for beta participation, but it doesn’t guarantee selection for a beta test.
