The open beta will run from Friday, January 19 at 3 PM EST to Monday, January 22 at 12 AM EST. There have been closed tests in the past but this is the first time that everyone can experience the game. Joining couldn't be easier because you only have to go to the game's Steam pre-load page and download the open beta client.

Scavengers Studio will be on Mixer during the afternoon to host a number of special guests. The team will also host a series of matches on the platform as they test Live Spectator Interactions. Live Spectator Interactions allow viewers to bet on the competitors they think will reign supreme and help the Show Director choose targets.
