PlayStation brings new beta program for easier access to upcoming features

PlayStation is changing how its users apply to test out new features ahead of implementation with the new PlayStation Beta Program. In a brief post, senior director of SIE’s content communications ‘Sid Shuman’, explained the new program calling it a centralized place to register for future PlayStation betas from a single place.

“The Beta Program at PlayStation will create an easy, centralized place for you to register your interest in a range of future PlayStation betas. A single registration for Beta Program at PlayStation will allow you to express interest in gaining beta access to test participating games for the PS5 console and PC, new PS5 console features, PlayStation App features, and even user experience features,” Shuman wrote.

Here are the registration requirements for PlayStation Beta Program

Getting into the new beta program is free, and all players need is its availability and an account with good standing. The beta space, however, can be limited in number as joining the program does not guarantee a spot. A better explanation for this requirement is provided below -

• Players must have a valid account for PlayStation Network in good standing with a current email address. Accounts with restrictions or violations may not be eligible for participation.
• Players must live in the region where Beta Program at PlayStation is available.
• Players must meet the legal age requirement for their region.

What are the benefits of PlayStation Beta Program?

The new PlayStation Beta Program looks like it aims to bring a hug for users to participate in various beta testing for PlayStation first-party games and services. Players looking to try new game games and provide feedback will not need to look around for places to register as the program will provide one directly. Even early PC releases are included in the program.
