News: Titanfall beta now open to all Xbox One users, PC to follow

The Titanfall beta is now available to all Xbox One users, Microsoft has announced. The beta had previously required a code to access.

To download the beta, simply look for it in the 'New Game Demos' section of the Xbox One Games Store. Can't see it yet? Microsoft warns that it may take some time for the demo to appear to some users but "rest assured everyone will see it soon".

The PC beta will also be opened up to everybody, possibly as early as today.

In addition, the beta has been extended by "at least a day" to make up for the server downtime experienced following Friday's launch. The beta had been due to end this Tuesday, February 18.

Heading online to try it out? For some hints and tips on how to dominate the opposing team in the beta, head through here.

Titanfall launches on Xbox One and PC on March 14, and on Xbox 360 on March 28.

News: Titanfall beta news due today but pre-order customers not guaranteed access

Respawn will announce more details on the Titanfall beta today, studio head Vince Zampella has revealed - but even if you've already pre-ordered, don't assume you'll be guaranteed a place.

Zampella teased fans with news last night, tweeting: "Good progress. Should be beta news tomorrow. There will be signups. So close!"

However, while it sounds as if beta access will be granted to a selection of those who register, Zampella's later comments reveal that pre-order customers aren't guaranteed a spot.

"Unfortunately no," Zampella said replying to a fan asking whether all pre-order customers would be offered access. "We tried but just couldn't do it."

And while access isn't expected to be particularly limited, Zampella says that "it is not an open beta by any standards".

"If it were up to me I would let most of you in (always a few bad apples)," he added. "Sadly, we have restrictions that we couldn't avoid."

Rumors earlier this month suggested that the beta could be due to kick off this Friday, February 14, with new players invited throughout the test.

Titanfall launches on Xbox One and PC on March 14 and on Xbox 360 on March 28.

News: Titanfall delayed on Xbox 360

The Xbox 360 version of Titanfall has suffered a two week delay, EA has announced.
The game now won't see a release until March 28, two weeks after its original March 14 launch date. The Xbox One and PC versions have not been affected and are still on track to launch in the UK on March 14.
"In these last few weeks before launch, Respawn is in the final stages of polishing the Xbox One and PC versions of the game," explained EA Studios EVP Patrick Soderlund.
"Bluepoint is doing the same with the Xbox 360 version. To give them the time they need to put the finishing touches on the current-gen version of the game, we are moving the Xbox 360 ship date to March 25 in North America and March 28 in Europe. The extra two weeks will ensure the full world of Xbox gamers has an awesome experience."
An Xbox One and PC beta for Titanfall is expected to launch next week.
