A new patch (1.0.4 ) update has begun to rollout on PS4 for those who have the technical test and/or OBT client (no reports yet of Xbox One players seeing the update). EME has not mentioned if there would be a 3rd open beta test (after last weekends shorter second test).
Since these last two betas “stressed” (pun intended) the stress test angle, it would not be surprising if the game is ready to be soft launched officially before the end of this month (possibly even this weekend if the Xbox One begins seeing the patch later on today).
Trophies have begun to show up for PlayStation which points to an imminent launch.
UPDATE: An EME representative stated the game would not be launching on Friday (and by extension, not this weekend either). The launch servers are however showing up on the client but are not allowing active connections. The following was from PS4.
