The Delta Force Technical Test Now Live for Xbox Insiders!

Alright, so, quick question before we dive in: who’s hyped for the Delta Force Technical Test? I mean, it’s happening right now. Yeah, you heard that right—it’s live today. Get pumped for some insane shooting action on the Xbox Series X|S. Or maybe you’re like me and missed the memo—who knows.

What’s This Game About Though?

So, Delta Force, it’s back. Ever heard of it? It’s this classic team-based tactical shooter that’s been around for, like, forever—okay, 25 years, but same difference, right? It’s hitting consoles on August 19. Comes with three kinds of chaos: massive multiplayer PvP called Warfare, a cutting-edge extraction mode, and oh, a campaign mode that’s a nod to Black Hawk Down. Old school meets new school.

Three Times the Fun, Whatever That Means

Here’s the deal: you got 32 Vs. 32 in Warfare, a futuristic extraction, and that cinematic vibe with Black Hawk Down. All thrown together in this one game bundle. Kinda mind-blowing if you think about it. Or maybe it’s just overwhelming. Definitely both for me.

One Account, Three Frontlines?

Now, get this, everything’s shared. It’s like hitting the jackpot. Progress syncs across console, PC, and even mobile. Oh, and cross-play between console and PC? Yep, that’s a thing. Can’t tell if it’s amazing or just making my head spin.

Free-for-All

Honestly, the best part—it’s all free. Yeah, you’re not hearing things. Three modes, more than 10 Operators, and over 10 maps. Plus, a boatload of rewards. Doesn’t cost a dime. How they’re pulling it off is beyond me.

Wanna Know More About Delta Force?

Absolutely no idea why I just remembered this, but hit up the details online if you’re curious. You know, just in case this little rant wasn’t enough for ya.

When to Dive In

Mark those calendars, or don’t—so the playtest starts Wednesday, July 16th, 6 PM PT. Wraps up on Saturday, July 20, same time. Anyway—no, wait, the time zones! That’d be 9 PM ET or, like, 1 AM UTC. Yeah, time travel, right?

How to Join the Fun

Okay, listen up: grab your Xbox Series X|S and hop into the Xbox Insider Hub app. Or download it if—like me again—you forgot to. Navigate through Previews, find Delta Force BETA. Click join. Easy-peasy. Oh, but heads up, it’s first-come, first-served. Why do they do that? No clue. But it’s part of the thrill, I guess.

Oh, and if you’re not in Canada, Mexico, or the U.S., well, better luck next time.

Screwing Up? You Bet

If things go sideways—and they might—use that “Report a problem” feature. It’s kind of a lifesaver. Hold the home button, find report, and fill it all out. It’s honestly easier than it sounds.

Talk It Out

Chit-chat, vent—or maybe just throw some shade—join the Delta Force Discord. More the merrier, right? Plus, there’s customer support if you’re into that kind of thing. Shoot them an email or whatever.

Final Words—Or Am I Rambling?

Oh, also, follow them on X/Twitter, or check the blog for updates. But really, who’s even still reading this? If you are, why not drop by the Xbox Insider SubReddit and hang with the community, because you’re clearly into this.

And now, I’m off to ponder why I felt like scribbling about this today. Catch ya on the battlefield, or maybe not.
