EA Sports UFC 3 beta begins late this month

Announced alongside the cover and feature reveals for EA Sports UFC 3 was that a public beta will also be held for the game. The beta period will run from Monday, November 27 through Friday, December 1 – but it’s possible if not likely that it’ll get extended through the weekend. Register here to receive a code at a later date for the beta on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One.

In recent years EA Sports has conducted both open and closed betas for UFC, FIFA, and NHL and offered early online demos for NBA Live. They’ve provided the opportunity to collect and act on feedback to improve the final release products. The play options in the EA Sports UFC 3 beta are very similar to that which went out for EA UFC 2 with both offline and online fights, the ability to try out Ultimate Team, and a Practice Mode. 

QUICK FIGHT and FIGHT NOW CLASSIC
Jump into Quick Fight and Fight Now Classic to experience the revolutionary new Real Player Motion (RPM) Tech. RPM is a revolutionary EA SPORTS animation technology that sets a new bar for motion and responsiveness in the best-looking, and now the best-feeling, EA SPORTS UFC game ever. Players can now slip and strike in full motion to execute dangerous counterattacks, adding new levels of strategy and competition to every fight.

UFC ULTIMATE TEAM
Ultimate Team in EA SPORTS UFC 3 introduces more personalization, strategy, and collectibles. For the first time, combine your customized create-a-fighter with real life UFC fighters like Conor McGregor and Tony Ferguson to build your UFC Ultimate Team.

All-new Fighter Chemistry allows you to chase and pair specific moves that grant boosts to your fighter for a strategic advantage. New Ultimate Team Solo Challenges feature dynamically-updated single-player gameplay challenges that unlock in-game rewards, while new Ultimate Team Sets allow you to collect thematic items and trade them in for items of higher value. It’s all packaged in a more streamlined experience, with redesigned pack openings and visuals that make it easier than ever to build your very own Ultimate Team.

PRACTICE MODE
