Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta details have been released by Sledgehammer, providing a roadmap for everything in the Vanguard Beta. Along with Call of Duty: Vanguard's first patch notes, the Vanguard Beta details reveal the maps, game modes, weapons, and features available when it drops next week. Here are all the Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta details...

The Alpha was pretty lit last weekend, wasn't it? Champion Hill is certainly a cool-as-hell new game mode, and just a whole lot of fun for everyone involved. It wasn't without its issues, but hey, that's the point of an Alpha, isn't it? To improve things! Anyway, the Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta is just around the corner, and Sledgehammer Games has released details! Here are all the Vanguard Beta maps, modes, and details...

The Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta details are looking bloody good, and we can't wait to dive in. Here's the latest Vanguard news and coverage...

What's Coming in the Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta?

The Vanguard Beta will introduce us to five maps, including Champion Hill, six operators, and six game modes. In addition to Call of Duty: Vanguard's various modes and maps, we will be introduced to the various changes that have been implemented since the Alpha, which were detailed in Vanguard's very first set of Patch Notes. Additionally, weapon adjustments have been implemented, and we should be getting a good sense of the game's arsenal.

What Maps are in the Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta?

  • Champion Hill
  • Hotel Royal
  • Gavutu
  • Red Star
  • Eagle's Nest (weekend 2)

What Game Modes are in the Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta?

  • Champion Hill (Solos, Duos, Trios)
  • Team Deathmatch
  • Domination
  • Kill Confirmed
  • Patrol (Kicking off Saturday of Weekend 1)
  • Search and Destroy (Weekend 2)

Patrol is a brand new game mode in Call of Duty: Vanguard, and is based on Hardpoint. We will cover this in detail in a separate article! Look out for the article, we will link it here once it's ready.

What Weapons are in the Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta?

  • Champion Hills:
    • Ten Upgrades will be available for each weapon, each adding an attachment.
    • There will be three rotating weapon sets:
      • 2 Assault Rifles
      • 2 LMGs
      • 2 Snipers
      • 2 Shotguns
      • 2 Pistols
  • Standard Multiplayer:
    • All weapons can be leveled up until you reach the cap at level 30.
    • PlayStation Players get two additional custom loadout slots (so 12, rather than the 10 on other platforms)

We do not have a full list of weapons that will be available in the Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta, but we can expect to see most of the weapons featured in the Vanguard Alpha. You should check out our full breakdown of the weapons found in the Alpha, and how we thought the game felt!

  • Lucas Riggs

What Features are in the Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta?

The Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta will introduce us to the new Combat Pacing feature. This new feature allows players to "select the intensity of their games", and thus determine the map size and player count that they are looking for. There are three different Combat Pacing modes, as described below:

What are the Combat Pacing Modes?

  • Tactical: Standard Call of Duty 6v6 lobby.
  • Assault: Balanced combat, with "enough room to breath", and player counts between 20 and 28.
  • Blitz: High action and high intensity lobbies with 28-48 players.

Sledgehammer Games released the Call of Duty: Vanguard Beta Details on their website, including Vanguard's first patch notes. Check out their website for more details!
