Konami has been planning to do an open online beta for Pro Evolution Soccer 2018, and now there are finally some details. The Japanese publisher announced today on Twitter that the beta will begin on July 20. Players will be able to play as two squads, the national teams of Brazil and France, and will be able to test the online play until July 31.
Any PS4 owner can check out the open beta, as PlayStation Plus is not required to play. The online beta will feature two different modes: the traditional one-on-one online play, and the new three-on-three cooperative online experience. All of this action will go down in the Neu Sonne Arena.
