Division 2 will have a brand new game mode at the end of 2021, at the latest

Ubisoft shared a little more information about the major update that will come to Division 2 in late 2021, including that there will be an entirely new game mode and new ways to progress your agent. The Division 2 development team shared the update, following up on their recent confirmation that more content was on the way and that Title Update 12 would no longer be the last major game update.Although the team hasn’t revealed much, they have teased that this new game mode is “entirely new to the franchise”. In addition, the team is “investigating new ways to advance its agent with an emphasis on increasing the variety and viability of construction”.

The development of this new update is still in its early stages and will take several months to complete, according to the team, and is currently scheduled to be released at the end of 2021 at the earliest. The aim is to make “significant changes to the game”, so that the necessary time is taken to ensure that this becomes a reality.

Until the update is ready, Ubisoft Massive will repeat the previous seasons released during Year 2. This means that the next season – Season 5 – will be a repeat of Season 1 and will give players a chance to collect rewards and collectibles that they may have lost the first time. There will also be regular leagues and global events, new clothing events and minor title updates focusing on the health of the game.Ubisoft Massive also revealed that The Division 2 saw over 40 million players and that March 2020 saw the most activity for the game since its launch in February 2019.

The development of Division 2 will continue as the studio also works on the creation of its Avatar game and the recently announced open world project Star Wars.
