A New Chapter in The Division
Franchise, and a New Map in Lower Manhattan
In Tom Clancy’s The Division 2
Warlords of New York, Division Agents will go on the ultimate manhunt for Aaron
Keener, a former Agent who has now gone rogue. Keener, along with his network
of Rogue Agents, is now a major threat to the burgeoning rebirth of
civilization. To track down Keener, Agents will roam the untamed living
open-world of Lower Manhattan; a former Dark Zone that was hit by a devastating
hurricane that struck New York City harder than anywhere else in the US. Set 8
months after the events that occurred in the first game, Agents are tasked to
explore 4 new named zones, each crafted at a 1:1 New York scale, including Two
Bridges, Civic Center, Battery Park and Financial District. Before confronting
Keener, players must first track down and take on each of his Rogue Agents.
Each Rogue Agent has their own unique back story - and a new skill that would
be earned once the Rogue Agent is taken down.
The Introduction of
Seasons and Return of Global Events
The Division 2 Warlords of New York will also introduce a new
post-launch philosophy: Seasons – a 3-month-long themed endgame event,
introduced as its own narrative-driven mini campaign featuring a new main
target and connecting network to track down. Each Season offers new gameplay
experiences with different stories and unique rewards. The first Season begins
March 10. In addition to the Seasonal Manhunt, Seasons will offer new in-game
activities. Leagues are a series of challenges for players, with
opportunities to unlock rewards based on players’ ability to complete such
challenges. Players will also see the return of Global Events,
time-limited in-game events during which a global modifier is applied to the
entire game and players will be rewarded by completing specific tasks. During
each Season, players will grow their Season Level to unlock various rewards by
participating in the various seasonal activities or even simply playing the
game. Players interested in collecting additional rewards can acquire a Season
Pass. The first Season Pass will be free for all players of The Division 2
Warlords of New York. More information on Seasons and the Season Pass can be
found here.
Full RPG Overhaul, More Meaningful Loot and Revitalized Dark Zones
After receiving community
feedback, core gameplay enhancements have been implemented across various
topics such as build diversity, gear streamlining and even more meaningful
loot.
Available both for The Division
2 and The Division 2 Warlords of New York players, Title Update 8 includes an
RPG system overhaul, allowing players to better read and
manage their gear inventory. The UI screen will be
updated to always show the roll ranges for each stat on a piece of gear or
weapon. The overhaul also includes the return of god rolls, improving
readability and helping players make better decisions on the gear’s usefulness
to their build. Additionally, players will see a more streamlined gear
recalibration system, with item and stat usefulness indicators, as well as
permanent attribute and stat storage at the recalibration station, simplifying
inventory management and giving Agents the flexibility to plan the perfect
build. With the new recalibration stat-storing system, players have new goals
to reach as they aim to find the best loot in the game and extract powerful
gear and weapon attributes for future use and build crafting.
In The Division 2 Warlords of
New York, the players’ level cap will increase from Level 30 to Level 40, but
it doesn’t stop there. The Division 2 Warlords of New York is also introducing
an infinite progression system called SHD levels, and 4 new skills that can be
used throughout the game: The Decoy, Shock Trap and two variants of the fan
favorite Sticky Bomb Launcher. Owners of the expansion will also get access to
new gear and new weapons, including Exotics.
