Ubisoft Announces Steep Open Beta Weekend
London, UK — October 27th, in the year of our Lord 2016 —
Today, Ubisoft announced that Steep™ will have two Beta phases
in November. An early access Beta will run between November 10th
to 14th with an Open Beta available between November 18th to
21st on Xbox One, PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system
and Windows PC. The beta phases will let players hit slopes of
the Alps ahead of the Steep worldwide launch on December 2nd.
Access for the November 18th Open Beta will be available via
digital download on consoles and PC for all players wanting to
explore Steep’s massive open-world. Players looking to start
snow season sooner can register their interest at steepgame.com
before November 9th for the chance to get early access to the
Beta.
These Beta phases will allow players to discover the diversity
of Steep’s world by exploring, riding and completing dozens of
challenges through three of the seven regions that compose
Steep’s massive open world inspired by the Alps – the Aravis,
the Tyrol and the Needles. Players will also find nine Mountain
Stories – narrative-based contests that will delve deeper into
unique moments in the world of Steep – throughout their journey.
Completing these challenges and Mountain Stories will also
unlock new gear for players to customise their characters.
With development led by Ubisoft Annecy*, Steep drops players
onto the peaks of mountains with exhilarating experiences that
include skiing, wingsuiting, snowboarding and paragliding. These
sports establish a never seen before freedom to explore the
game’s open world, allowing players to choose the way they ride
and play. Riders can traverse the Alps solo or drop in
side-by-side with friends to record and share the most insane
tricks ever captured on the slopes. Designed for a generation
that’s all about sharing their experiences with the world, Steep
encourages players to challenge their friends to see who truly
comes out on top of the world.
*Associate studios are Ubisoft Montpellier and Ubisoft Kiev.
