The Division 2: Battle for Brooklyn has been revealed
Ubisoft have announced that Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 is getting a new season and when that arrives on May 27, it will also come with a new expansion, Battle of Brooklyn. Check out the deep dive video on the new expansion below.
In Battle for Brooklyn, players will visit post-pandemic New York during fall for the first time and explore the iconic Brooklyn neighbourhoods of Brooklyn Heights and Dumbo. Brooklyn has been relatively peaceful with civilians working together and thriving while hostile factions ravaged Manhattan. However, the Cleaners and Rikers have now moved across the river, threatening the fragile tranquillity of the Brooklyn settlement with the Purple Flame.
Battle for Brooklyn features unlockable skills, including the return of Smart Cover from The Division 1, which enables players to reinforce cover, gain offensive and defensive buffs, and enhance pulse resistance for all allies. Available as a DLC exclusive, the Catalyst Exotic Mask will be helpful for combat against the Cleaners, thanks to its bonuses for dealing and receiving status effect damage.
The showcase also shared updates on Year 7 of The Division 2; the team's three main goals for the year are to improve the onboarding process for new players, add more depth to the endgame loop, and solidify seasons as a cornerstone of the game's experience. Additionally, with new seasons, players can look forward to new events and realigned modifiers, gear, and gameplay that better reflect the narrative events.
