Alright, buckle up because this might get a little bumpy. Imagine me sitting here, caffeinated and slightly distracted, but oh well, let’s dive into this thing called the Delta Force Technical Test. Are you even ready? Probably not, but let’s pretend we are. It’s live today, right now, as in this very moment if you’re one of the lucky Xbox Series X|S folks.
So, what’s this all about? Delta Force just screams “let’s get tactical,” doesn’t it? It’s free-to-play, because who pays for games anymore? Mark your calendars or, better yet, tattoo it on your arm with invisible ink — August 19, it hits consoles. Can you believe it’s been orchestrating chaos for like 25 years? Three modes are packed into this, all snug, like a burrito. You got your chaotic multiplayer PvP — Warfare, a next-gen extraction shooter cleverly named Operations, and that classic nail-biter, Black Hawk Down.
Now picture this: a 32 Vs. 32 battlefield of madness, and oh, if you’re into numbers — one account to rule them all. Yeah, progression spills across your console, PC, and even mobile. Maybe even your smart fridge — who’s stopping you? Oh, also, cross-play is a thing now between console and PC.
The best part? Everything’s free! I’m talking 3 modes, over 10 Operators, beyond 10 maps, and rewards? Loads of ’em. I almost want to meet these Operators, ask them how their day was. But I digress. More about Delta Force somewhere, if you can find the link.
Let’s time travel to the playtest. It begins Wednesday, July 16th, sharp at 6 PM PT. Wraps up on Saturday, July 20, same time. These precise timings boggle me, honestly. Anyway, where do you go for this? Fire up your Xbox Series X|S and get that Xbox Insider Hub going. If it’s not installed, well, you know what to do. Go to Previews, find Delta Force BETA, and smash that Join button. There’s limited room, like a concert you forgot to buy tickets for — first-come, first-served vibes here.
Oh, small print alert: It’s one of those Canada, Mexico, and US-only things. Sorry, rest of the world.
If you’re wrestling with any bugs or glitches — and trust me, you will — there’s this “Report a problem” thing. Apparently, patience is key. Hit the home button on your Xbox controller (like magic) and get into the Games category, find Delta Force Beta for CBT Xbox. Type out your woes, they’ll appreciate your suffering.
On a different note, want to discuss life, or maybe how the game is? Head to the Delta Force Discord. Or shoot an email to support if you’re feeling old-school. You’ll find those deets in a FAQ somewhere I’m assuming.
And, if you fancy even more confusion, track the hashtag @XboxInsider on whatever platform you’re using to doomscroll today. There’s also a SubReddit, if Reddit’s still your thing. Go forth, explore, or not. Your call.
