OHHHHH YEEAAHHHHHH!!
The time has come ladies and gentleman. All of the Gears of War 4 beta news has been released, and there is great news for anyone who still hasn't played the Gears of War Ultimate Edition. The original deadline to be eligible for the beta was March 1st. This has been extended until April 11th and provides another month and a half for those who want to be eligible for the early access of the beta. There will be two parts to the beta, early access and open. The early access will take place between April 18th and the 24th. This will be for anyone who has played the Gears of War UE prior to April 11th. The open beta will then begin from April 25th and last until May 1st.
The codes for the early access will begin to go out on April 18th. They will be sent via Xbox Live messaging system and go out in waves. As a result, you may not be able to get in as soon as the beta goes live, but you'll get it in plenty of time to try out the early access.
