Modern Warfare 4: Beta Keys · Day 1

Early Access beta keys for Modern Warfare 4, handed out free on the game hub from 20 August 2026. A hundred and thirty keys were put up in this drop and seventy-five are already with people — every one of them sitting in an order somebody can open.

What went out

PC keys for the early access window — five days ahead of the beta opening to everyone. The open beta opens to everyone on 28 August and will cost nothing; the keys only buy the head start, and the page says so. No purchase, no entry fee and no follow-for-entry: a signed-in account and the claim button are the whole mechanic.

How it ran

The timer opened at 19:00 Moscow time on 20 August. Claiming needed a Neonsect account, one key per account, and the code landed in that account’s own order the moment the claim went through — which is why it is still findable in My account, and in the completed-order email.

The numbers, and what each of them counts

A hundred and thirty keys were put up on this drop. Seventy-five of them have gone out, to seventy-five different accounts, one each; the rest go out in the drops still ahead rather than expiring here.

Nobody took two: the claim reads an account’s own order history before it issues a code, and each of those orders carries its key on the line item — the same record the person who claimed it can open.

The count at the top of this page covers the whole Modern Warfare 4 pool, including the keys handed out in our Discord and on our social channels. Those never passed through an order, which is why they cannot be checked here the way the store ones can.

If the keys run out

Anyone who arrives after the last key is taken gets a discount code instead, and so does anyone who opens the page once the timer has closed. That is the point of the fallback: a giveaway that sends most of its visitors away with nothing is an advert, not a giveaway.

Questions people asked

Was the key free, or attached to a purchase?

Free. Every one of those orders is zero-total. There was no minimum spend, no bundle and no obligation attached to the claim.

Could one person take several?

No. One key per account, checked against that account’s own orders before a code is issued. Every key went to a different account.

Where is my key now?

On the order it was issued with — My account on this site, and the completed-order email. The code did not expire when the giveaway did.

Why does the beta need a key at all?

From 28 August it will not. Only the early access window is gated, and the keys buy five days inside it.

Did I have to be in Discord to take part?

Not for this one. The claim lived on the game page and needed only a signed-in account. Discord is where the next drop is announced first, which is a different thing.
