Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is getting a beta, and according to an Amazon product page, it could be coming in August. The page for MW2 on PS5 says players who preorder will receive their beta code in August. The Xbox Series X|S page gets a little more specific and says those who preorder by August 15 will unlock early access to the open beta.

But you won’t hear your created character speaking their dialogue aloud this time.
