Activision announced that the Alpha version of Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War will be available for PS4 users. While they can pre-load the game and play, there are some who have concerns. Games like Call of Duty take a lot of time investment to level up and unlock guns, scorestreaks as well as specialists. The guns also need grinding to level up. Therefore, players wondered whether the Alpha progress would be ported to the beta and subsequently the global version. Game developer Tony Flame, working with the Cold War team took to Twitter to clarify this.

He confirmed in his tweet that developers will ensure that all the progress from the Alpha version will be available in the global version too. He also teased that Activision will be adding fresh content to the game over time. This comes as good news for those who will be playing the Alpha version over the weekend. They will no longer worry about the progress that they earn. Additionally, with this provision, the players can gain an upper hand over those players who start from the Beta or the Global version. This would be both in terms of experience and skills as well as levels.
