All we knew about Call of Duty: WWII’s story is that the entire world is entrenched in a globalized war (obviously known as “World War 2.”) Every country, every nation were all invested in World War 2, that brought the world together to stop an evil military organization from absolute domination. The story climaxes in the middle of D-Day. You, Private Ronald “Red” Daniels, just started in the First Infantry Division of the U.S. Military. And, just barely, you survived the battle in Normandy. You, and your squad will have to continue battling in Europe. The new trailer points to new clues such as one of your squad members has successfully infiltrated the Nazis. Only to be enslaved and is on the brink of death. Your story begins here…

Call of Duty: WWII PC Beta begins 9.29.2017
Thanks to everyone for making the Call of Duty: WWII Private Multiplayer Beta on console a huge success. We received a ton of great feedback and insights that we’re applying across the game on the road to launch. We’re also thankful for the open and constructive dialogue throughout the course of the Beta. It meant a lot to every developer who was actively reading comments on Reddit and our social channels. And best of all, it was great to finally be able to play Call of Duty: WWII with the community.
Now, the Multiplayer Beta is coming to PC as an Open Beta for all PC gamers.
Together with Raven Software, we’re excited to share that the Call of Duty: WWII Open Multiplayer Beta on PC will kick off on September 29th and run through October 2nd on Steam.
The PC Open Beta is just a small part of the full Call of Duty: WWII Multiplayer experience coming to Steam in November. This test is a critical step on our road to delivering the best possible online experience on Steam at launch in November, with the following key goals:
– Stress test core gameplay systems and online backend infrastructure at scale
– Provide PC fans with their first hands-on experience of the boots-on-the-ground combat coming in Call of Duty: WWII Multiplayer
– Engage with the PC community to fine-tune and optimize the PC experience for November
Here are the minimum PC specs you’ll need to play in the Beta test. Please note that these specs are for the Beta only. In our next update, we’ll share the recommended PC specs for the Beta, since we’re finalizing this part of our testing as we speak.
Min Spec:
OS: Windows 7 64-Bit or later
CPU: Intel Core i3 3225 or equivalent

Video: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 @ 2 GB / AMD Radeon HD 7850 @ 2GB or better

These specs could change following the PC Open Beta, so we’ll share the final specs closer to launch.
We’re just getting started here, so in the days ahead, stay tuned for pre-load information as well as a rundown of planned content and features coming to the PC Open Beta. We’ll share the list of resources for information and troubleshooting, as well as any updates you’ll need before the Beta goes live.
