Ahead of the return of “Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War” beta, Activision detailed the easiest way to get into the game’s build without pre-ordering and that is through Twitch Drops.

This is also helpful since it provides watchers with ideas on how to strategize when playing “Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War.”

Unfortunately, this method will only give players beta code intended only for the game’s PC version. This means that Xbox One users who did not pre-order “Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War” would have to wait a little longer to get their hands on the game.
