  I’m curious as well, do have a official release date yet?

  Kabam is battling to get this from beta to permanent content on the grounds that we all want it.

  Battlegrounds is a pretty interesting concept but it should get a few tweaks like instead of just 7 seconds to ban we should get a full minute, actually they should make every single one of the timers like 2 mins. They should also give you 10 mins to complete a fight and when you don’t have a counter they should have an ask button where the game gives you a free counter for the defender you’re fighting so this is my good take

  I can't tell if this is serious...

  And:
  
  The loser gets the same amount of points as the winner because we are ALL winners

  Doing this definitely kills the uniqueness of BG and it will be a terrible design

  BG is full of cheaters…
  It also gets boring very quickly, as repetitive game play does.
  (It’s especially boring with a global node that doesn’t change)
  
  That’s my opinion

  There was supposed to be a whole month-long beta during April, but it got scrapped so Kabam could focus on tweaking some stuff. Instead, we got a week-long beta.
  
  That means that there's presumably a month-long beta still to come, with the full launch coming only sometime after that. So my guess is that we'll see that longer beta during May and then see the full launch in June or July, assuming they don't get stuck fixing something (like the cheating).

  I hope they take a bit longer to address and counter that cheating.

  Battlegrounds is fun. Even more so because there are so many champs to choose from and apply.
  
  Regardless of the issues from the first two betas, I will continue to play it.

  Pretty sure battlegrounds was supposed to fully release in April, not get a month-long beta. However, the March beta proved that there were a ton of issues that needed to be resolved. Instead of fully releasing potentially broken content, they decided to run another beta to see if their fixes worked. Also somewhere on forums kabam confirmed they have anticheating measures in place for once battlegrounds is released, and obviously they aren't going to tell us how they will catch cheaters because then the cheaters could easily find a way around it.

  It was supposed to be a month long beta that's now happening in May: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/300863/adjusted-battlegrounds-beta-schedule-early-preview-2-april-20-27#latest
  
  

  We had initially planned for April to include a 30 Day Beta test, but will be pushing this back to May
