Game publisher Ubisoft has recently opened its website to take registrations from interested Xbox One players who would like to be among the first batch to experience Tom Clancy's The Division beta version this coming December.
Tom Clancy's The Division beta will be available on gaming systems Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Windows PC. While the PlayStation 4 and Windows PC beta versions are scheduled for an "early 2016" release, Ubisoft announced during Microsoft's E3 2015 press conference that Xbox One owners can test this modern military-setting RPG exclusively in December.
Gamers should preorder The Division from a participating retailer to have guaranteed access codes for the beta. There is also an option for players to register for the waiting list, and though it is not a guarantee, one can still play if the company decides to test servers—if it can accommodate more players at certain times.
Apparently, there is no limit if one would like to play on the three different platforms as long as the player preorders the game multiple times as well. The company may also provide special in-game rewards for eligible beta players, which can be unlocked during the full release of The Division in March 2016.
The four-player online co-op shooter is set after a devastating pandemic spread through New York City. With chaos extending everywhere, one will play as an agent of The Division with the ability to specialize and modify gear, weapons and skills to regain control of the city.
The game is currently under development at four separate Ubisoft studios, as the company seems to be very cautious in balancing the game rather than releasing it for the holiday season prematurely. Even though the game has had its release delayed more than once, many players are still waiting years after its initial announcement, and the company has been dedicated to pleasing the fans.
Check out a great gameplay trailer in Dark Zone multiplayer mode and be inspired to preorder a copy and play Tom Clancy's The Division beta soon.
