[UPDATE] Bethesda has announced that it's opening Doom alpha access to more people. Anyone can now register to play through the links below on a first-come, first-served basis.

The test begins at 7 PM PST/10 PM EST today, December 3, and runs until Sunday, December 6 at 8:59 PM PST/11:59 PM EST.

Separate from the beta set to take place next year, this alpha (like the previous one) is open only to a select pool of those who preordered Wolfenstein: The New Order and signed up for access.

If you bought TNO digitally through PSN or Steam, you can check to see if you're eligible to participate by looking for the alpha in your PS4 or Steam library now. Xbox One owners should be looking for a code sent in an Xbox Live message starting today.

The process for those who purchased physical copies of TNO is slightly more involved, as detailed in the alpha FAQ. Those outside the United States on PS4 also have to go about things a bit differently.

The alpha test is fairly limited in terms of content; there's only a single map, one game mode (12-player team deathmatch), and seven weapons available. There's also a non-disclosure agreement for those in the alpha preventing them from sharing anything from the game, though that didn't stop some testers from briefly leaking video of the October test and other details.
