Sony and PlayStation have a long history of engaging users through beta programs on their gaming consoles. Recently, they’ve made an exciting announcement about streamlining these test processes with the introduction of the new PlayStation Beta Program.
### How do you sign up for the PlayStation Beta Program?
As of today, Sony has revealed a pathway that’s more straightforward and consolidated for gamers eager to dive into future PlayStation betas. But what does this mean for you? Essentially, if you sign up, you could get early access to beta tests for upcoming PS5 console and PC games, as well as new features on the PS5 console, the PlayStation App, and PlayStation.com.
There are a few eligibility requirements Sony has outlined for those interested in signing up for this new Beta Program:
1. You need to have a valid PlayStation Network account that’s in good standing, along with a current email address. If there are any restrictions or violations on your account, unfortunately, you might not qualify.
2. You must reside in a region where the PlayStation Beta Program is active.
3. You must meet the legal age requirement for your area to participate.
To get involved, you can head over to the registration link provided by Sony starting today. Once there, sign in with your PSN account and agree to the terms and conditions. You’ll then set up your profile by selecting your top three genres, your favorite play modes, the platform you prefer, the types of betas you’re interested in, your favorite play style, and indicate your age range. And that’s it—you’re in!
It’s important to remember that signing up doesn’t automatically grant you access to every beta test. Sometimes, there are more interested players than there are spots available. Also, this program is globally accessible, so it’s not confined to specific regions.
