Call of Duty Vanguard: Play Before Release - Alpha Test Coming Soon on PS5 & PS4

Call of Duty Vanguard

Sledgehammer Games gives the first information about Champion Hill in Call of Duty Vanguard. In a current blog entry, the developers go into more detail on the game variant, which can be described as a kind of evolution of the well-known Gunfight mode. However: Unlike Gunfight, in Champion Hill you are not on smaller maps, but on a larger map that is divided into different areas. "Eight teams in four arenas" face each other, as can be seen from the trailer below. As a squad, it's your job to be the last team to leave the field - and decide the game for you.

Everyone starts with the same loadout, and you collect additional weapons and expansions during the course of the game. You will also receive virtual money that you can also invest in upgrades to your equipment. The map of the new game mode for Call of Duty Vanguard (buy now 79.99 €) is divided into four areas: a runway, a train station, a market and a kind of inner courtyard are waiting for you. If you were blown over, you can watch the rest of the game as a spectator.

Call of Duty Vanguard Alpha: What You Need to Know

A limited-time Alpha is coming to PlayStation for Call of Duty: Vanguard.


In the follow-up from the reveal of Call of Duty: Vanguard, players are getting the chance to preview a new multiplayer mode in an exclusive PlayStation Alpha. The new mode, Champion Hill, is an arena survival tournament where players will have to face-off against other squads in a series of timed rounds.


This will be the first chance for players to not only test out Champion Hill, but also to get a taste of what's to come in Call of Duty: Vanguard ahead of its release in November. To help you prep, here's everything you'll need to know about the upcoming Alpha.

The Alpha is due to run from Aug. 27 to Aug. 29. Players can preload the Alpha from Aug. 23 up until Aug. 27. A PlayStation Plus subscription won't be needed in order to take part but internet access will be required. Players will be able to download the Alpha directly from the PlayStation Store. The Alpha can then be accessed via the main menu of either Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Call of Duty: Warzone, or Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War.


For those who aren't able to play the Alpha, the Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta is scheduled for Sept. 10. Access to the Beta will require a pre-order until it becomes available for everyone on Sept. 16.
