Battlefield 1's open beta is due to start on Wednesday, August 31 on all platforms. Being a multiplayer beta, fans are naturally curious if PlayStation Plus will be needed to play it on PS4.

This is not the case, thankfully, and anyone will be able to download and play it without the need for a code, or a PlayStation Plus subscription. The confirmation comes by way of Twitter, via the game's official account.
