\nEarlier this morning Sony announced its first-ever PS5. Being a participant will allow you to test out col new features for the PS5 that Sony hasn\u2019t rolled out to the public. But you will naturally need to register first before you stand a chance at being selected. The good news is that you really only have to register once. Because Sony has confirmed that signing up to be a part of the first test will automatically register you for future tests in this program. If you haven\u2019t signed up yet, doing so is rather quite easy. And if you\u2019re not sure how or what to do, this simple guide will walk you through each of the steps. There aren\u2019t too many, so the whole process won\u2019t take too long. There\u2019s no guarantee that signing up early will give you better chances. But it can\u2019t hurt to get the registration out of the way immediately. So you might as well do so if you have the opportunity. There\u2019s a pretty simple reason as to why you would want to sign up to participate. The testing of new features before other users get to access them. Not so much so you can be a part of something others are not. But more so because you get to see what cool new features Sony is cooking up early. If that sounds like your cup of tea, then you\u2019ll definitely want to throw your hat in the ring. There aren\u2019t that many steps to the process, so we\u2019ve broken them up into short individual sections below. You\u2019ll need to be signed into your PlayStation account for any of this to work and to matter. So start by heading to the PlayStation website and click the sign in button to get started. Doing this now will save you the trouble of having to do it later. And even though it really doesn\u2019t add that much extra time, if any, you may as well do it before anything else. Now that you\u2019re signed into your PlayStation account, you can go to the beta signup page and register to be a part of the beta program. Remember that by doing so, you\u2019re opting into participating in the beta program and testing out new software and features for the PS5 console. As beta software can be unpredictable, you may run into issues with the console. So it\u2019s recommended not to register if you aren\u2019t comfortable with this detail. To go to the beta signup page,. Once you\u2019ve signed in and you\u2019re on the registration page, simply click the Register Now button to opt into the beta program. You\u2019ll need to check a box that says you acknowledge and agree to Sony\u2019s terms of service for this program. And then that\u2019s basically it for the signup process. It should come as no surprise that Sony has a set of requirements that you will need to meet if you want to participate in the beta. First off, you\u2019ll need to be at least 18 years of age to take part in the beta. If you\u2019re not, Sony likely will dismiss your registration request. Or it may send you additional things to acknowledge. Like a parent who may need to sign off on the participation. Sony isn\u2019t exactly clear on this point. So just assume that if you aren\u2019t 18 then you probably won\u2019t be considered. You\u2019ll also need to be living or located in one of the supported regions that were mentioned above. In addition to the regional restrictions, you also need to have a valid PSN account. That account needs to be in good standing, meaning your account payment is current, and you need to have a valid email address tied to that account. But, if your account is active in the first place, then you have a valid email account. Lastly, Sony says that all participants need to submit complete and accurate feedback about the beta system software test. So be prepared to give Sony feedback on everything. As that\u2019s the main point of Sony doing these kinds of tests in the first place.<\/p>\n
