Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 - How To Join Early Access!
Original source date
Answer
If you have pre-ordered the game digitally, then you do not need to worry about early access at all. As soon as the early access portion of the beta release is live, you will gain access to the game on your platform and receive an email from the Call of Duty platform with proper instructions. Remember that PlayStation gets access about a week before Xbox and PC pre-order users. If you pre-ordered the game in a store or get a beta code from some other source, then you need to know how to turn that beta code into something that you can use for your platform. If you enter that code into your platform directly, it doesn't work. Here is what you’ll need to do.
