How to play Arena Breakout: Infinite early access – Release date, time & preload

Following a successful closed beta, Arena Breakout: Infinite is launching in early access, giving players another taste of the tactical FPS ahead of the full release.

If you’re still itching to complete missions, defeat bosses, and escape with valuable loot, you’ve got another opportunity. Here’s how to play Arena Breakout: Infinite early access, including the release date and times in your region.

How to get Arena Breakout: Infinite early access

Arena Breakout: Infinite early access is available by signing up on the game’s official website. Unlike the beta, this early version can only be played through the devs’ website, meaning it can’t be found on Steam or other PC storefronts.

Here’s what you need to do:

1. Head to the official Arena Breakout: Infinite website.
2. Click on the ‘Pre-Register’ button in the top right-hand corner.
3. Either login to your account or create a new profile.
4. Follow the steps to register for early access.
5. Wait for preloads to go live and download the game.

Arena Breakout: Infinite early access release date & time in your region

Early access begins on Tuesday, August 12, 2024, if you’re in the United States. However, the date and time vary slightly depending on where you are.

• 7 PM PST (August 12)
• 10 PM ET (August 12)
