With Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown set for a September release as a car MMO, testing its network-connected abilities will be key to a smooth launch – and now those with a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S can be part of a beta to do just that.
This follows a limited-time demo on PC – with restricted progress – which acted as a form of open beta, back in June.
Those who have pre-ordered the Gold digital edition can access the ‘VIP’ beta from today, 13th August, running until 18th August. This version retails for $89.99/€89.99/£74.99 and includes seven days of early access when the game releases alongside additional cars and cosmetic items.
A second console beta, dubbed the ‘closed beta’, then begins 27th August until the 30th. Once again, those who have pre-ordered the digital Gold edition will receive access, but so will those who have orders for the digital Streets Silver/Sharps Silver editions and the physical Collector Edition.
The Streets Silver/Sharps Silver versions are $79.99/€79.99/£64.99. They both include clan-related cosmetic items but differ in included bonus cars. The Range Rover Sport SVR and Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG come with the Street Silver edition, while the Sharps Silver edition is equipped with the Jaguar F-Type SVR Coupe and Audi R8 Spyder V10 RWS.
Meanwhile, the all-singing-all-dancing Collector Editon is €249.90 with all the digital goodies mentioned in the other versions plus, among other items, a leather key ring, ceramic casino chip, cufflinks and a Porsche 918 Spyder model car.
