Sony’s upcoming sci-fi first-person shooter, Concord, is almost here. Ahead of its official release, Sony will be holding an Early Access and an Open Beta Test for prospective players. The tests will allow players to get a taste of what the game has in store and to get excited for Concord’s official release on 23 August, 2024. This is everything you need to know ahead of the game’s upcoming Beta Tests.
When Is The Concord Open Beta Test?
Concord’s beta tests happen in two phases: the Early Access test and the Open Beta test. Both tests will be available on PS5 and PC. These are the dates for both of them:
- Early-Access: 12 July, 2024 to 14 July, 2024
- Open Beta Test: 18 July, 2024 to 21 July, 2024
How To Get Into Concord’s Beta Test
Players who pre-order Concord will be able to get in on the Early Access test. Additionally, they will receive five codes to access the test. One of these codes will be for you to access the test, while the rest of them can be distributed to your friends so they can get a taste of the game for free.
Concord’s Open Beta Test can be accessed by all players, whether they’re playing on the PS5 or on PC. The Open Beta Test is free, meaning that you don’t need to buy the game in order to participate.
If you find yourself loving the game after the Beta Tests are complete, you don’t need to wait for the game’s official launch on 23 August, 2024. If you pre-order the Deluxe Edition, you’ll gain access to Concorde three days before its official release.

The Beta test lets players try out several features from the game’s official release, including:
- All 16 playable Freegunner characters.
