Here's what Ubi have said is in the beta:

It's set in an open, shared world, with all sorts of races and things going on if you want or you can simply going a-exploring. Steep is a snowsports game combining the usual skiing and snowboarding with some less conventional deathtrips, like wingsuiting and paragliding. You could hardly take them home with you on the bus, could you?

If that sounds big to you, hey, consider how big the Alps are. The beta doesn't begin until Friday but you can now preload the game, which is handy as it's a 19GB download. If you, like me, fancy hitting the slopes this weekend in the free open beta test for Ubisoft's open-world xXtremewintersportsXx 'em up Steep, fire up Uplay today.
