Be the First to Try New PS5 Games and Features with Sony’s Beta Program

Sony wants you to be among the first to try out upcoming PS5 games and features, and it’s launching a new beta program to manage it all.

While participating in betas has often required you to jump through various different hoops, the platform holder is launching an “easier, more consolidated way for gamers to sign up to participate in future PlayStation betas across a wide range of PlayStation experiences”.

The PS Blog’s Sid Shuman explains: “The Beta Program at PlayStation will create an easy, centralised 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, PS App features, and even user experience features on PlayStation.com.”

The key here is that you only need to sign up once to express interest in all upcoming betas, and if you’re selected for a specific test, you’ll be able to decide whether you want to participate or not.

It’s worth noting that this initiative doesn’t guarantee access to a specific beta, as Shuman stresses sometimes there “may be more interest than the company can accommodate”. This is more about expressing your interest in being considered for future betas – and, as mentioned, you only need to sign up once.

You’ll need to be from an eligible location to participate, and must meet the legal age requirement for your region. Beyond that, you’ll just need a valid PSN account in “good standing” with an up-to-date email address.

And that’s it really. Once you’ve registered through here, all you’ll really need to do is sit tight and see which betas you’re selected for. This should be fun, huh?
