Depends on where you buy it from. If you buy it through Steam, then yes, you get access to the beta. If you buy it through a third-party provider, it varies.
Buying from third-party sites always poses a risk. I bought my copy from a third-party site as well, luckily I got my game without any fuzz. I don't have any experience with g2a.com, but according to trustpilot.com they only have a 6.2/10 rating. So it's definitely a "buyer beware" thingy.

Thank you very much for this. I am more than happy with getting the game for ?19.99. Just waiting now for my code & wouldn't be bothered if I couldn't get the Beta.

Looking at the description on the site I don't think it does. You get your access code approx. 24 hours before the official release date.

Yeah that's the message I kind of got when I ordered it. Ah well, 24hrs before release and for ?15 below retail is a bargain so I can't really complain!
Thanks for scooping us to the deal @wanderer89!

Sorry about the reply.
You don't get the beta with them, BUT, if you have an Amazon UK account, they do give you the beta, I did this..
Pre-order FM from Amazon UK, it's ?30, but they don't take the money out straight away, so pre-order from there, wait until you've got your beta key in an email from them (I had to wait 2 minutes, if that!), then as soon as you've got it, cancel your order. Free beta
Do this at your own peril, I won't be held responsible if you get charged the full amount, I'm just saying that me and plenty of others did this and were able to cancel no problem.

Can confirm this works as I'm playing the beta version now

Thanks for the nice price. Hope its a real bargain
I did as you did with amazon since last year but did not buy the key as I did not like the game. Do you think, I could activate the final version with the code they'll send us and keep my actual game with the beta on my steam account
Theres nothing mentionned on the region, I hope its not a russian version
