03:10 PM - January 14, 2016 by aholbert32

The EA Sports UFC 2 closed beta is scheduled to release on Thursday, January 28 and ending on February 4 for both Xbox One and PlayStation 4. The closed beta is only available to gamers that own the Xbox One or PlayStation 4 version of EA Sports UFC and live in North America.

This is a closed beta and is only eligible to fans who own Xbox One or PlayStation 4 and are EA SPORTS UFC owners in North America. For those of you that meet those requirements, make sure you register here. Quite a few people are having problems registering at the moment, most getting the "Sorry, you are not eligible to participate in the beta at this time" message. We have contacted EA about the issue and will update this post when we hear anything back. Once it is up and running without any issues, you will have until January 21 at 10:00 AM PT to register, for a chance to receive a code.

The download will be roughly 11 GB
The exact time will vary based on platform and region
You will not be able to pre-load the beta

Game Modes in Closed Beta

Quick Fight

Featuring the deepest roster of any fighting simulation, select fighters from the Welterweight division and step into the Octagon for a 3 or 5 round bout.

UFC Ultimate Team

Create your team of up to five fighters using UFC 2�s deep customization options. Compete in online or offline competitions to progress your fighters and earn Coins that open packs which deliver special items used to sculpt your team into the most explosive in the UFC.

Practice Mode

A no-consequences environment designed to let you master the basics of striking, grappling and clinch-work at your own pace before putting your skills to the test in real competition.

Skill Challenges

Dive into all-new mini-games to help players learn and perfect stand-up, clinch, and ground disciplines.

Other notes from the FAQ:

Can I play online against other players?

The EA SPORTS UFC 2 beta will support online play. You can throwdown against (1) online opponent in a 1 vs. 1 fight.

Will I be able to customize my fighter in the beta?

Yes. In UFC Ultimate Team you can create your own team of custom fighters. After each fight, win or lose, earn Coins to open Fight Packs that contain items that improve your fighters. These items allow you to customize your fighter by giving them unique moves, attributes, perks and more.

Will my UFC Ultimate Team stats carry over to the main game?

No, any stats or progression during the beta will not carry over to the full game when EA SPORTS UFC 2 launches in March 2016. However the skills you learn through this beta will!

Will I have to re-create my Ultimate Team when EA SPORTS UFC 2 launches on March 15?

Yes, teams created in the beta will not carry over to the full game.

Awesome! I'm going to triple check my info right now lol. I want in dammit!

Is this something that's going to be ready for download at midnight on January 28th? (meaning 1 minute after 11:59 on Wednesday the 27th). Just trying to get my days off work lined up! Being an accountant kills my ability to take off the 1-4th......................

Along the same lines, any idea when the codes will be sent out? Hopefully sometime Wednesday.

I didnt get that email and Im already registered for the beta

Kidding, just found another email that was linked to it, and I was able to sign up and good to go. Weird. No clue how this email would have ended up there.

What happens if I got an email that I was eligible 6 days ago and just signed up and it said I was good, but I didn't opt in with this email? Or if I was already signed up was I already in?

For those having trouble, try again. I was able to register successfully just now.

They need to go ahead and make Conor a Welterweight so we can use him in the Beta.

# 152 davidbix @ 01/21/16 08:53 PM

I got the above email, clicked the "register" link, signed in...and I'm still not eligible. I know that the email address is the one in my Origin account that my copy of EA Sports UFC is signed into.

HELP!

Not too sure. I didn't do anything special. I literally clicked the link and it let me register and confirmed that I had signed up.

I would say to be sure you are signing in with the right e-mail. Sometimes when I go to sign-in, it auto logs me in with my other email which is the incorrect one. Just be double sure that you are signing in with the correct details. That's all I got man. I hope it works for you

Same here brother. I know all of my stuff is signed in right I've already triple checked too.

This is a total cluster that makes me glad I'm media and might be able to get a code anyway in a week even if this doesn't work.

I'm going to try the EA Live Chat thing. It makes no sense that we got the e-mail invite but we're still not eligible.

I'm getting the same thing...What the heck man?

# 159 JoeMimic @ 01/21/16 10:21 PM

I switched from Chrome to Firefox and now I'm chatting with someone. Will update with anything.

Update - Basically got told that they're still having massive amounts of people with this issue and to keep trying and possibly from a different browser.

# 160 JohnDoe8865 @ 01/21/16 10:46 PM

Having the same issue. Got the email posted earlier in thread and went to register and was STILL told I'm not eligible. What a cluster.
