Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 – Private Beta Detailed

In roughly a week, Ubisoft will be running a private beta test for Tom Clancy’s The Division 2, which should give the game’s potential players their first taste of co-operative shooting and looting in a post-apocalyptic Washington, D.C setting. The beta will include two main missions, some side content, a bit of PvP action, and even a sample of The Division 2’s end game content.

Check out the private beta trailer:

Some additional details:

Welcome to The Division 2 Private Beta! If you have been selected into the testing phase, we want to welcome you as you take your first steps into Washington, D.C. The beta introduces you to some of the unique features The Division 2 has to offer—main missions, side missions, open world activities, and one of the three Dark Zones—to name a few.

You are limited to one character during the testing phase, and this character cannot be deleted. At character creation, you are able to cycle through presets of customization features to randomize your Agent. Remember that character progression is capped at level seven during this period.

Two main missions are available—Grand Washington Hotel and Jefferson Trade Center—to offer a smaller piece of a much larger, compelling narrative we are telling from start to finish. You can access these missions from Odessa Sawyer and Dyani Kelso, respectively.

As you explore D.C., five optional Side Missions will also be available for everyone who prefers to branch out from the main storyline:

  • Empire Autumn Hotel
  • MLK Library Hostages
  • National Archives
  • Mustang Court Rescue
  • Bureau Headquarters

You will explore parts of seven named zones, each possessing a specific level range to indicate difficulty as you traverse the world:

  • The White House—also serving as your Base of Operations in D.C.
  • Downtown East
  • The Federal Triangle
  • The Smithsonian
  • Final Epiphany
  • The 1040
  • Dark Zone East—the largest of all three Dark Zones, players utilize long sightlines in over-grown governmental parks. You will acquire the DZ East introduction mission from Senait Ezera—the new Dark Zone NPC in the Base of Operations—after completing Jefferson Trade Center. Completing this intro-mission unlocks full access to the Dark Zone and its features.

In addition, a variety of Control Points, living world activities, and Conflict PVP await in the Private Beta.

END GAME

We are excited to announce that the Private Beta will also feature a portion of The Division 2’s end game! After completing Jefferson Trade Center for the first time, you will gain access to an end-game mission that unlocks three level 30 characters on your account. Upon logging in with one of these characters, the end game mission will begin. Each character is equipped with a different Specialization, so feel free to find your favorite! Please note that this end game mission will be available starting on February 8 at 5 PM CET.

With all that being said, we have a few closing reminders!

  • This beta phase is not under an NDA, so we encourage everyone to capture and share their experiences with the community.
  • This version of the game is not final and elements are subject to change.

If you do not have access to the Private Beta, you can preorder or register for a chance to be selected!
