Wardogs Beta Start Times and How to Play Explained

Bulkhead Interactive has announced an open public beta for its upcoming FPS game Wardogs, marking the first time the game will be accessible to all interested players. Previously, all playtesting opportunities have been limited to invited participants only.

The beta launches at 1 p.m. EDT on Friday, August 21, with staggered start times for different regions. West Coast players can access the beta at 10 a.m. PDT, ensuring convenient participation across North America. While the excerpt does not provide complete access requirements, players are directed to details on how to gain entry to the beta.

The public beta announcement coincides with the recently announced FPS Games Show, during which additional Wardogs news and announcements are expected. This strategic timing suggests Bulkhead is leveraging both the playable beta and accompanying coverage to build momentum, gather player feedback, and assess how the game performs with a broader audience as development continues toward full release.
