After weeks of teasers, Infinity Ward has unveiled all the intel on what the Modern Warfare 4 beta has in store. Whether you’re a fan of multiplayer, prefer to drop into Warzone, or experience the single-player campaign, this year’s beta has something for everyone. With a huge amount of content across the two weekends, you’ll get your first taste of what Modern Warfare 4 has to offer before its full release. Here, take a closer look at all of the confirmed content appearing in the Modern Warfare 4 beta.
What’s Included in the Modern Warfare 4 Beta?
Across the Early Access and Open Beta weekends, Infinity Ward has included a campaign mission for the very first time. You can experience the Entrenched mission for a small taster of the latest entry into the modern-day Modern Warfare series.
Multiplayer remains a big focus of the beta. Alongside the traditional dose of core 6v6 action on a selection of brand-new maps and game modes, you can also experience Kill Block, a mode where the map features over 500 different layouts.
Lastly, you can drop into a brand-new Warzone Resurgence map. Codenamed Zodiac, the Modern Warfare 4 beta is the first opportunity for battle royale fans to see what Warzone’s future has in store.
All Modern Warfare 4 Multiplayer Beta Content
Even with a campaign mission and access to a new Resurgence map, multiplayer remains the core focus of the Modern Warfare 4 beta weekends. Below is the full list of content you can experience:
- Five multiplayer maps
- New Kill Block mode
- Ground War
- 10v10 and 3v3 Gunfight
- Ten game modes

The beta is only a small slice of the full Modern Warfare 4 experience. Two weekends of playing before launch also allow Infinity Ward to collect feedback and address any issues that may arise as huge numbers take to the servers.
