The Division 2 Story DLC Delayed Once more, No New Launch Date Introduced Players Enviornment

Ubisoft has delayed the upcoming The Division 2 story DLC out of the sport’s sixth yr, however it appears to be like just like the third season will stay on the playing cards for February.

In an X put up, Ubisoft says that it needs to “ship the absolute best expertise” for The Division 2‘s story DLC, and so it “is not going to ship throughout Yr 6”. That seemingly means it will not be launched till a minimum of summer time this yr, though it could possibly be even longer.

The DLC was initially introduced again in 2023 and was initially meant to be a part of the sport’s fifth yr of content material, including new zones, primary missions, and “an entire new endgame construction” in direction of the tip of 2024.

Nonetheless, in December 2023, the sport’s story DLC was delayed past 2024, making this the second time the DLC has been pushed again. Maybe appropriately, that first delay was revealed alongside “Challenge Resolve”, an initiative that aimed to enhance The Division 2 throughout the board.

Ubisoft hasn’t revealed a brand new launch date for The Division 2‘s story DLC. Truthfully, at this stage, I do not suppose I might be stunned if the enlargement was canned altogether, though maybe the sport nonetheless enjoys a large sufficient participant base for these delays to not spell the tip.

The pushback of this DLC comes after what has been a fairly horrendous yr for Ubisoft. The studio has endured a number of high-profile failures, together with pirate recreation Cranium and Bones, open-world journey Star Wars Outlaws, and first-person shooter XDefiant.

Not solely that, however Ubisoft has delayed its upcoming flagship RPG Murderer’s Creed Shadows twice, confronted investor unrest and authorized motion, and closed three of its studios, with a number of extra present process downsizing.

The Division 2‘s story DLC could not precisely be the flagship launch Ubisoft has been banking on to show its fortunes round, however this delay will not precisely come as a balm to shareholders who’re already involved the corporate has no clue what it is doing.

At any price, if you would like to atone for The Division 2 earlier than the DLC launches (a pursuit for which it appears you will have loads of time), you’ll be able to seize it proper now on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, in addition to on current-gen consoles by backwards compatibility.
