News: Treyarch has opened up the beta to every PS4 gamer along with changing and adding some things to the experience.

Call of Duty: Black Ops III is currently going through a beta on PlayStation 4. Up until now you needed a code to access the beta but Treyarch has announced that they have opened it to everyone so they can really stress test the servers. In addition to the beta now being available to all PlayStation 4 gamers, there are some other things changing as well. For starters, they are increasing the level cap to Major (Level 34) which will unlock new weapons, equipment, perks and scorestreaks.

Treyarch is also adding a new map into the rotation with Stronghold which is a high tech Swiss chateau in the frozen Alps, featuring an asymmetrical design with a lethal mix of exposed sightlines and tight, close quarters. In addition to the new level increase and new map, a new specialist will be available for players that reach Level 34 - Reaper,

Real Name: Experimental War Robot (EWR)

Bio: Started as an expensive military R&D project to supplement Special Operations soldiers in the field, the EWR was a cutting-edge prototype combat robot, the most advanced in the world at the time. Budget overruns and embarrassing political incidents left the project all but a resource for scrap metal, except for the one prototype that remained.

Weapon: Scythe - Robotic arm that transforms into a high power Mini-Gun.

Ability: Psychosis - Infiltrate enemy DNI systems to simulate three decoy clones.

Treyarch is also introducing the Uplink game mode to the multiplayer playlist. In Uplink, players face off in an effort to take control of a downed satellite and into the enemy’s goal. Over the course of the next few days there will changes and tweaks made to the beta by Treyarch so be sure to watch out for those.
