Activision has announced it will hold a beta session for the two other platforms later that same week. > The second Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 Blackout beta will kick off on Xbox One on September 14, a few days after the PS4-exclusive session is scheduled to begin. As with the Black Ops 4 private multiplayer beta held earlier this month, the Blackout beta will only be open to those who've pre-ordered a copy of the game.
