The Division team is gearing up the machine and is ready to start testing of The Division. The first alpha phase will begin on December 9th and run through the 12th and will be exclusive to XBox One users. Those who joined the wait-list will be added as-needed for the duration of the alpha event.
This exclusive XBox One alpha testing phase in December will be the first time the public gets to play a version of The Division that includes more than the Dark Zone PvP enabled areas. This means the moment you and other players sign into the game, you'll be giving us valuable insight into how our infrastructure performs under pressure that we can't replicate internally or at a tradeshow. This process allows us to monitor and gather additional feedback on other aspects of The Division as well. However, due to the early stage of the alpha, we ask that all participants do not share images, video, or descriptions of the game's content outside the official Division alpha forums. Players will be prompted to accept a non-disclosure agreement before playing the alpha.
The team also announced that those who preordered The Division for XBox One, PlayStation 4 or PC will gain closed beta access beginning in early 2016.
