Halo Wars 2 is getting an open multiplayer beta on Xbox One next week, a leaked listing on the Xbox Store has revealed.

The listing was first spotted by Italian site MondoXbox, who noticed that the unannounced beta was being followed by Xbox Live’s Major Nelson. VideoGamer.com has since verified that the listing does exist and that the beta will begin next Monday, June 13, before ending on Monday, June 20.

It isn’t yet clear whether the beta will also be available on PC.

Halo Wars 2 launches on Xbox One and Windows 10 PC this autumn. Expect the beta to go live shortly after Microsoft’s E3 press conference at 5:30pm BST next Monday.

UPDATE: The first screenshots of Halo Wars 2 have also appeared on Reddit. Check them out here.
