The Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 open beta period has officially been extended by an additional 24 hours. Developer Treyarch Studios made this announcement on Twitter on October 6, shortly before the playtest was scheduled to conclude. Alongside this news, Treyarch also revealed an update for the beta, which includes a new map for players to explore.

There is no detailed information yet regarding whether the limited skill-based matchmaking playlist that is present in the beta will feature in the complete game. But fans are delighted to have more time for testing. In a recent tweet, Treyarch confirmed the new end date for the Black Ops 7 beta: it will now conclude on Thursday, October 9, at 9 AM PT.

With the extension, 2XP and 2X Weapon XP will also remain active until the beta ends, giving players a chance to reach level 30 and try out the latest weapons and gear before the official release in November.

Furthermore, Treyarch has announced a new update for the Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 beta, which adds another map to the Multiplayer rotation. Players can now enjoy the map ‘Toshin’ alongside existing maps during the beta testing period.
