New York City has been hit by a devastating pandemic. Essential services are collapsing one after another. Chaos reigns everywhere. Within days without food and water, society falls apart. The government activates a top-secret unit of self-sufficient agents known as The Division. These agents, living among us seemingly ordinary lives, can operate independently of command when everything else fails. As they fight to preserve civilization, the agents will confront a conspiracy of massive proportions. The greatest threat won’t be the laboratory-grown virus, but those behind its creation. As the world around you crumbles, your mission begins…
Gameplay features
Total collapse – We live in a fragile and complex world. Every day we rely on a tightly interwoven network of systems. When one fails, the rest fall too, creating a deadly domino effect capable of paralyzing society in a matter of days. In Tom Clancy’s The Division, you’ll dive into a terrifyingly chaotic New York where all structures have failed. Your mission as a Division agent is to join forces to restore order and reclaim control of the city.
A new take on the Clancy series – Welcome to an online RPG set in an open world, where exploration and character development are the keys to survival. In intense combat, you’ll need to use your skills, weapons, and wits. Play in an open, dynamic world that blends classic Tom Clancy brand elements: authenticity, tactical decision-making, RPG action, trading, and more.
Social aspect – Team up with friends in co-op you can join or leave seamlessly at any time. Combine your abilities, hunt down sources of infection, and deal with every threat… even the city’s inhabitants. The game smoothly mixes PVP battles, player trading, and constantly confronts you with tense situations where danger comes from every direction.
Next-gen only – The game is powered by a brand-new graphics engine called Snowdrop, developed specifically for next-generation consoles. Thanks to this, Tom Clancy’s The Division reaches a whole new level of quality. The Snowdrop engine fully harnesses next-gen power. With technologies like dynamic global illumination, procedural object damage, and an incredible amount of detail, the visuals will absolutely floor you.
Gear up and forge your own adventure – As part of The Division, you have access to cutting-edge tech, from standard-issue tools to prototypes still in secret labs. Loot fallen enemies and craft new, better gear. Customize your emergency backpack—the agent’s sole supply lifeline during a collapse—and stay connected with other agents via smartwatches. Personalize your agent with thousands of weapons, skill combinations, gear, and more. The path you choose will lead either to the city’s salvation or its final downfall.
