Hey guys, can anyone confirm that if i pre-order this game i will be able to play the beta until the release date?

Cheers

P.S.: Is there any official release date yet?

Think twice before pushing out a thought, that might sound like somewhat near to the question 'Are Nadeo scammers' ?

Of course you get the beta on pre-order, everything is fine.

FFS: You have posted in wrong section.

Of course it will.

If you preorder the game you will get to play the beta until the game is released, and then you'll also already own the released version as well (because you preordered the game).

As well it might not. It is not been stated.
Yet this beta seems to be one of those that somehow get it to the release.

The preorder is not for the beta.

The preorder is "pre" meaning "before" and "order" meaning to buy it. So it's a way to order the game early and get a discount for doing it early.

Make no mistake though, you're not buying the beta. You're buying the finished game.

But, as a bonus....

If you're worried there is something between the beta and the final release, that's doubtful. The only thing there is likely to be is perhaps a Release Candidate. It's almost certain that beta testers will also have access to the RC, if one is made.

How tough-minded one most be to think that pre-order is only to beta :roll: ?

The access if for the entire duration of the Beta (and Release Candidate), don't worry about that :thumbsup:
