The EA Sports UFC 3 beta is now live on PS4 and Xbox One, including a new range of modes to try out.
The beta includes four modes in total and is set to run on both consoles until December 4.
The end date could be a little different in the UK as EA have confirmed that UFC 3 will be going offline at around midnight, PDT.
That would mean 8am in the UK, on Tuesday, December 5.
EA have also made some clarifications on how microtransactions will not be used during the beta, but how they could impact the final game.
According to the publisher, the purchasable item packs are only available in Ultimate Team mode.
"There are no purchasable fighter upgrades that affect any other mode," a representative for EA told IGN.
It should also be noted that no purchases can be made during the beta test period.
"Our matchmaking logic takes fighter attributes, moves, boosts, and perks into account and prioritizes matching players with similarly upgraded fighters in addition to player skill," the statement adds.
"The goal is to prevent uneven matchups as much as possible. Furthermore, the game features Online Ranked Championships and unranked Online Quick Match for competitive and casual head-to-head online play."
