Creative Director Julian Gerighty and his team are giving the Division players two new expansions releasing summer this year.
He noted that “The first expansion pack that we’ll be focusing on, which will be a pack for summer this year, is really going to continue this philosophy that we put into place with the 1.4 update. It’s a philosophy of generosity and rewarding players for spending time in the game and playing and driving them to player-driven activities where they can craft their own unique stories. That’s something we really, really believe in.”
What can payers expect? From the sounds of it, there’s more re-using of pre-existing content with events. “One of the biggest pieces of new content is an events structure, which will reward players for participation, completion, and completion within a playlist of activities that have a modifier. Basically, taking a set number of activities within the game and adding a spin to them that makes players see them in a whole different light and play them in a whole different way.”
It will be interesting to see how these free expansions work considering The Division has slowly started getting better with the new content that comes around – unfortunately much to fan’s dismay the content hasn’t really progressed the story, so hopefully the new content will take into account some story elements.
