If you don’t have a Battlefield 6 beta Early Access code, Twitch Drops could get you one – so long as you watch

In celebration of the impending launch of the Battlefield 6 beta, EA has revealed a new Twitch Drops event that works just about as you’d expect. EA wants Battlefield 6 to shoot to the top of the video streaming platform, so it’s offering viewers some rewards.

The event coincides with the launch of the Battlefield 6 beta’s Early Access weekend, but seeing as not everyone is invited to that initial stage, it probably makes sense to watch some live gameplay while you wait.

The Battlefield 6 Twitch Drops event kicks off on Thursday, August 7 right with the beta’s public availability. What’s interesting with this campaign, however, is that it’s also going to let you score an Early Access code, not just in-game skins.

If you watch any participating streamer on Twitch August 7-8, you’re going to get a beta early access code. You only need to watch for 30 minutes to get the Twitch Drop, after which you can redeem the code on the Battlefield website and start playing.

Of course, for any of that to work you’re going to need to make sure your EA account is linked to your Twitch account. Whether or not you manage to score a beta code and play, you’re probably going to want to continue watching to earn all the other Twitch Drops.

The Battlefield 6 beta livestreams will continue for Weekend One (August 9-10), and Weekend Two (August 14-17). Your watchtime is cumulative, so you can split it across the various days. There are four rewards for you to earn that range from weapon and vehicle skins, to soldier skins, too.

• Watch for one hour to earn the Mimic Weapons Package.
• Watch for two hours to earn the Landslide Soldier Skin.
• Watch for three hours to earn the Shattered Vehicle Skin.
• Watch for four hours to earn Imperial Soldier Skin.

Once you clear each objective, the associated reward will be available to claim in your Twitch Drops Inventory, but they need to be claimed within 24 hours from being granted. The rewards themselves will be available to use in Battlefield 6 at launch.
