The Closed Network Test is only available for PlayStation 4 owners, and they must allow gameplay data to be collected and processed. The data is used to improve the game.

Most importantly, players will have to submit feedback about their gameplay experience. This feedback is important to developers because they can take care of any lingering issues or bugs, plus improve the player experience before the game is released.

The Closed Network Test will take place across the world, covering four different locations, such as North America, Europe, Japan, and Asia. Players will have to sign up for the right region. The Closed Network Test takes place between April 25 to 26.
