Update: The Beta Has Concluded

Update: The beta has now concluded (Source: Gamespot, Gamer, and other reputable gaming outlets).

Why the Beta Stopped

So, why did the beta come to an end? Activision, the game developers, had planned for a specific duration for the open beta to allow players to test the game, give feedback, and iron out any bugs.

This means that once the beta ends, you’ll start fresh when you play the full game, so be sure to wipe out your beta data beforehand (Source: Activision official announcement).
