V1 Interactive and Private Division have announced that Disintegration, the next title from the co-creator of Halo, will soon run a Closed Technical Beta, giving select players early access to the game, but if you miss out on that, an open beta will take place soon after.

You can register your interest in joining the Closed Technical Beta here, though a place is not guaranteed, if however you fail to enter, you can just join the open beta.

The Closed Technical Beta will run on the following days, between the set times:

• Wednesday 29 Jan - 3am - 11pm AEDT

• Thursday 30 Jan - 3am - 11pm AEDT

The open beta will run on February 1st and 2nd, based on time zones, regardless of which you play though, the beta will provide you with a chance to test two of the three frenetic multiplayer game modes that will be available in the full game at launch.

In Retrieval, the first game mode, players compete in two intense rounds in which one team attempts to deliver a payload which can only be carried by their ground crew while the other team defends. In the second game mode, Control, two teams vie for domination over various capture points. Players must ensure their ground crew are alive and within the zone as this is the only way to accrue score to win the match.

Players will be able to play with seven of the final game’s unique crews in the beta, such as the damage-boosting Tech Noir or the nuke-launching Warhedz. The purpose of the betas will to ensure stability and collect feedback ahead of when the game launches later this year.
