You’ll then have a whole weekend to enjoy a slice of what the game’s multiplayer has to offer. If you’re wondering what the actual start time for the Cold War open alpha is, servers will go live at 10 am PT/1 pm ET, according to Activision. Those interested in participating in the open alpha can download it now on PlayStation 4. 18-20, the alpha will allow players to try out three classic Call of Duty multiplayer modes - Team Deathmatch, Domination, and Kill Confirmed - as well as a new mode called Combined Arms: Domination, a “12v12, vehicle-inclusive twist on traditional Domination, set in larger maps compared to the game’s traditional 6v6 play spaces.” Expect to be able to play across five new maps in the game in locations such as Miami and Moscow.

Activision will give Call of Duty fans their first taste of Black Ops: Cold War during the game’s free open alpha.
