Players have been signing up for the Closed Beta in the past weeks and additionally some  fortunate souls were lucky to grab a key via giveaways hosted on various participating gaming websites. The second Closed Beta brings a lot of new features and improvements for players to dive into and test out: Via the brand new Shooting Range option players can choose their weapons and attachments to directly test recoil and handling, allowing them to try each weapon with different types of weapon mods before heading into a game. The game will also introduce custom channels providing the opportunity to create rooms to test and play with friends. Besides additional quality-of-life improvements, the new game version features a new map called Dual Sight, available for both the Demolition and Annihilation game modes.

As of now players are able to sign up and enter the first ever CBT ESL Community Cup. The tournament will feature 5 vs. 5 Demolition matches, therefore players have to sign-up with teams of 5. The matches will be livestreamed and additional goodies are being given away in form of Steam gift cards to the audience. The CBT ESL Community Cup starts January 20th and ends with the Finals on January 30th, with Steam Gift Cards worth $300 as first prize.
