Open beta
An open beta is a testing phase where a product, like software or a game, is made available to the general public before its official release. This allows developers to gather feedback from real users, identify issues, and make improvements. Participants can try the product freely, helping ensure it’s stable, functional, and enjoyable when fully launched. Open betas are common in technology and gaming industries, offering a collaborative way to refine a product based on user input while generating early interest.
