The sequence of events began with promotional material showcasing the game's multiplayer features and map scope, followed by early access beta guides and weekend preparation intel. The Source Magazine reported that an official trailer features Wu-Tang's song 'C.R.E.A.M.', while Nintendo Life covered the release of the official multiplayer trailer. IGN published a beta guide outlining maps, game modes, and rewards.
Meanwhile, Insider Gaming reported that the beta matchmaking will utilize a new system. The franchise's official channels released initial intel for weekend one, and gamingnexus.com noted preparations for the first beta weekend.
