Here’s when The Division’s beta will be available for download

Ubisoft confirms 48-hour preload time

With Tom Clancy's The Division beta hovering around 26GB on PC (presumably similar on consoles), it's easy to understand why fans are eager to know more about pre-loading.

According to the game's official French page on Facebook (translated), the beta will be available for download 48 hours prior to the beta's start date. As revealed last week, the beta will begin on January 28th for Xbox One, and January 29th for PC and PS4. The beta ends on January 31 for all platforms.

We recently had a lengthy hands-on session with The Division, in which we experienced some end-game missions, our Base of Operations, and much more. Check out our preview here.

Tom Clancy's The Division is set to release on March 8, 2016 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. Microsoft recently announced a 1TB Xbox One bundle with the game included.
