Google has released the first beta build of Android 14 QPR2, a quarterly platform release that will eventually turn into the March 2024 update. The build is available right away for most Pixel devices as far back as the Pixel 5a.
The Android 14 QPR1 program hit Beta 2.2 at the beginning of November, but Google has decided to move on to QPR2 instead of releasing a stable QPR1 build in December.
