04:10 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

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.

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.

Page says I'm not eligible, and I definitely owned UFC (though I got it on a PSN sale, not right of the bat). It's sitting on my HD right now. I'm pretty sure I even played online so there should be a record of it.

Any ideas? I didn't get an email either, and they're apparently going out now.

Did you opt in by the 9th? I didn't until the 12th and it says I'm eligible either. I'm guessing it's that

I think that all of the opt-ins havent been processed. Try later.

I opted in at whatever the first possible moment was that I knew about it, when aholbert and GameplayDevUFC made their posts about it. I'm sure that was before the 12th.

I dont know. I opted in one email address this morning and its the only one that I was able to register. The one I opted-in last week was said to be ineligible.

hmmm, might just take awhile for it to process them then. Also just noticed I had the wrong e-mail on my EA account which probably isn't helping things

Lets trouble shoot. How many of you guys who cant opt in have the disc or digital version?

Digital here. Bought it off the PSN after a price drop.

I double checked the opt-in page and UFC is definitely checked on.

Are you logging in with your origin email? That seems to be the key. Log out and enter the email you use for your origin account.

For me at least, my Origin and EA login/email are one and the same.

Hmm. I cant call it. It worked for a few others and it worked for me. My origin email is an email I rarely use but it worked.

I was able to register. I have the digital version of UFC 1.

I was a little confused; are they sending keys to everyone who is eligible and registers, or only select people? At first it sounded like only some, but then at the end they made it sound like if you got to that point you were in.

Sure hope I get it!

You are in and will receive one closer to the start date.

Yeah I just changed my e-mail to the one I use now and the one I opt'd in with. The one I had on there was old

# 18 sportsfan8812 @ 01/14/16 05:06 PM

It's say that i'm not eligible. I have EA UFC 1 on disc for the PS4. I opted in prior to January 9th

# 19 Pappy Knuckles @ 01/14/16 05:32 PM

Just registered. Let's get this **** going! I'm digital, btw.

# 20 BDKiiing @ 01/14/16 05:36 PM

Didn't seem to work with mine, I was told I was ineligible. And I opted in the first day that you could.
