Paris, France
— May 6,
2021 — Today, Ubisoft announced an update
on the Tom Clancy’s The Division universe.
The launch of Tom Clancy’s The Division® back in
2016 marked the first completely original IP under the Tom Clancy
umbrella since 2009, and the game broke multiple Ubisoft sales
records. The franchise continued its development with Tom Clancy’s
The Division® 2 becoming one of the most successful games of 2019
and its 2020 expansion, Tom Clancy’s The Division® 2 Warlords of
New York, was the most active in the game’s history.
“In the past five years, The Division has grown
from a very ambitious project at Ubisoft to a world-renowned
franchise reaching 40 million unique players,” explained Alain
Corre, executive director of Ubisoft EMEA. “We are very proud of
what our teams have accomplished with this franchise and the
amazing universe they have created. The potential and depth of this
enables us to explore new and exciting content that will please
loyal long-term fans of The Division and new ones alike.”
As part of this expansion of the franchise,
today Ubisoft unveiled Tom Clancy’s The
Division® Heartland, a
brand-new free-to-play game set in the universe of The Division.
Development is being led by Red Storm Entertainment, a studio with
close ties to the Tom Clancy licenses, who have also worked on The
Division and The Division 2. The Division Heartland will be a
stand-alone experience available on PC, console and cloud platforms
in 2021-22. Ubisoft also announced plans to take The Division
franchise to mobile, bringing the universe to an even wider
audience. More details on this project will come at a later
date.
Finally, The Division 2 will also be receiving
brand-new content as part of an update coming in late 2021. Ubisoft
Massive, with support from Ubisoft Bucharest, is leading the
development of this new content that will include an entirely new
game mode and new methods for levelling agents up with an emphasis
on increasing build variety and viability. More details will be
revealed on this new update ahead of its release.
The Division is also expanding its transmedia
offering, with the film, starring Jessica Chastain and Jake
Gyllenhaal, in development with Netflix. Inspired by the events of
the original game, the film will be directed by Rawson Marshall
Thurber. Additionally, The Division is announcing an upcoming
original novel published by Aconyte. The story will be set after
the events of The Division 2 and will explore how the Outbreak
affects different regions of the United States as agents fight to
secure supply routes. More information will be shared about The
Division’s transmedia content later this year.
