The Halo 5: Guardians beta will run from December 29 through January 18

It’s a three-week beta

Today at gamescom, Microsoft unveiled some more information on the upcoming Halo 5: Guardians beta, which is set to arrive in December.

All in all, it’s going to be a three-week beta, starting on December 29, running through January 18. It’ll be custom tailored to 4v4 combat, which will focus on smaller maps, which is just fine by me.

As a reminder, you’ll automatically get access to the beta if you buy the Master Chief Collection later this year.
