  • Primary Subject: Wardogs
  • Key Update: The Wardogs closed beta will only last three days, as the developers prepare for the early access launch.
  • Status: Confirmed
  • Last Verified: September 4, 2026
  • Quick Answer: The last Wardogs closed beta will run from Thursday, September 3, to Sunday, September 6, at 1:00 AM PT.

A second closed beta/playtest for Wardogs is currently underway, allowing players to try out the anticipated game before its early access launch next week.

The beta won't last long, and just like the first one, only players who pre-ordered any of the game's editions will get access. If you are one of them and want to know how much longer you have until the servers close, keep reading.

When Does the Second Wardogs Closed Beta End?

The second Wardogs closed beta is scheduled to end on Sunday, September 6, at 1:00 AM PT. This means that the playtest will remain available for 2 and a half days, almost the same time as the previous one.

Here is when the beta will end for each region:

  • 1:00 AM PT
  • 3:00 AM CT
  • 4:00 AM ET
  • 9:00 AM BST
  • 10:00 AM CEST
  • 6:00 PM AEST

How to Access the Second Wardogs Closed Beta

There are only two ways to get access to the second Wardogs closed beta, but only one of them is guaranteed. The first method is by pre-ordering any edition of Wardogs, whether it is the Standard Edition or the Supporters Edition. All players who pre-order will receive immediate access.

The second method is by requesting access to the beta directly on the game's page on Steam. You will find a green button under the game's trailers and images to request access. Given that the developers have been granting access to waves of players multiple times, we assume it shouldn't be too hard to join the fun.

Wardogs is scheduled to release in early access on Thursday, September 10, 2026. The game is only releasing on PC through Steam, as no console versions have been announced at the time of writing.
