Early Access

Sometimes, games like CoD tend to go live earlier than their designated release date. This means that players would be able to hop in the game earlier. It is expected for pre-orders to get a chance to run the game a day earlier than the official designated release date, or November 12. Nevertheless, we’ll have to wait and see if this is true.
