    I'm not aware of them committing to a date. Based on the features they said they intended for the full release, and what has been released as preview so far, they appear a ways out still.

    I think it'll be out around 2022-2023 if they are still working on it currently. I haven't heard many updates though, but also haven't been looking out for any myself. If I'm still caught-up with the news on it, we're pretty in the dark with it unfortunately.

    I'm a little confused, so there's no beta or anything we can try now?

    There's the alpha of the transport, which I believe is here:
    https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/multiplayer

    There's also an example FPS game with source posted somewhere implementing an iteration of this.

    Ooh good news, they seem to have an upcoming update (live stream on YouTube) on April 1, 2020, according to this recent blog post. The talk will be entitled "Multiplayer & Live Games".
