MW4 Beta Archive & Reference

This archive preserves verified Beta weapons, maps, progression, rewards, settings and patch history as dated pre-release evidence. It is not a source for launch balance.

Final Beta end: September 1, 2026 at 10:00 PM PT. The Open Beta was originally scheduled to conclude at 10:00 AM PT before being extended through 10:00 PM PT on September 1.

Launch readiness: Modern Warfare 4 launches October 23, 2026. Launch verification begins against the retail build on that date.

Beta gameplay progression does not represent permanent launch progression. Eligible cosmetic Beta rewards already earned are expected to carry into the full game according to the official Beta rules; launch balance, weapon values and a launch meta are not published here before reliable evidence exists.

Beta evidence policy

Official roster and schedule claims are separated from gameplay screenshots and creator testing. A screenshot preserves what appeared in a captured build at that moment; it does not establish final launch balance, hidden mechanics or a best setup. Every dynamic record keeps an evidence label and review date.
