Call Of Duty's first Xbox Game Pass beta is upon us - with the Black Ops 6 early access beta being included in the subscription this weekend. Alternatively, pre-ordering the game will also grant early beta access, if you're not subscribed to Microsoft's service.

We know lots of you will be excited to give this a go ahead of the title's full Game Pass launch this October, so, here's everything you need to know heading into Black Ops 6 beta weekend one.

Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 Beta Dates And Start Times

The Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 beta goes ahead on two upcoming weekends. The first weekend is for Xbox Game Pass users and pre-orders only, with a second open beta to follow for all players.

The first beta weekend begins August 30th at 10am PDT / 1pm EDT / 6pm BST / 7pm CEST, and it ends on September 4th at those very same times.

The second, open beta weekend begins September 6th at 10am PDT / 1pm EDT / 6pm BST / 7pm CEST, and wraps up on September 9th - again at the same times.

How To Install The Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 Beta

As you'd probably expect these days, the Black Ops 6 beta install is more complicated than it needs to be. However, we're here to break it all down for you and make your life a little easier.

So, the beta is a part of the 'Call of Duty Hub'. To access the beta, you'll need to download the base 'Call of Duty' app, and make sure that the Black Ops 6 Beta files are also installed.

To do this, head to the Xbox Store on your console, search for 'Call of Duty', and find the Call of Duty tile with the Black Ops 6 artwork. Then, hit 'manage game' and choose the relevant Black Ops 6 beta files to install.

What you need is as follows: Call of Duty Base game, and BO6: Beta. There are also two 10mb files labelled 'Open Beta' & 'Beta Pack 01' - we'd recommend selecting those and installing them as well, just in case you need them.

Call Of Duty: Black Ops 6 Beta Install Size Xbox

Thankfully, the team has reduced the game's file sizes ahead of the Black Ops 6 beta. So, the base game is now 40.3GB, and the BO6: Beta file is 32.4GB - on Xbox Series X.

Overall we're looking at just under 73GB of storage needed for the Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 beta on Xbox.

How Can I Access The Black Ops 6 Beta Through Xbox Game Pass?

As we mentioned earlier, this beta is completely playable for free as part of Xbox Game Pass, and its integration is very simple.

As long as you're subscribed, the Black Ops 6 beta files will be right there and usable within the Call of Duty hub. In fact, if you've already been playing Modern Warfare 3 through the service, you may already have 'BO6: Beta' installed as part of a recent update - so that's worth checking first if you have MW3 installed.

Either way, as long as your account has an active Game Pass subscription, you can play both weekends of the Black Ops 6 beta!

What Rewards You Can Earn Playing The Black Ops 6 Beta

Finally, we'll drop an image down below showcasing all of the content you can earn across the two Black Ops 6 beta weekends. Of course, these rewards will all carry over into the main game.
