The Division Last Stand DLC Receives New Information; No Release Date Announced

Ubisoft has revealed more information on the upcoming expansion pack for the Division, The Last Stand.

Thanks to the stream they held earlier today, we now know that the expansion will not launch first on Xbox One or PC like previous DLC’s; rather it will launch simultaneously  across all platforms. However, they didn’t manage to announce a release date for the Last Stand.

There are tons of new info about the DLC expansion on the official Division site, however, here are some bullet points of the highlights (thanks to GameSpot):

• There will be PvP and PvE elements
• A new Dark Zone North area is being added–this will be DZ 7, 8, and 9.
• The idea for the new Dark Zone North areas was to give players more freedom to explore interior areas as well as rooftops and underground areas. The size of playable spaces has increased, too.
• The Dark Zone has doubled in size with the new zones, developers say.
• You can move from DZ 6 to DZ 7. “It is one contiguous space,” Ubisoft said.
• The size of the Dark Zone is growing but the player cap is staying the same.
• You can fast travel between DZ checkpoints.
• A new PvP mode called Last Stand is being added. It’s basically organized PvP inside the Dark Zone, developers said.
• The Last Stand mode is 8v8 and it supports matchmaking.
• There is also going to be a new Incursion with Last Stand; more information is coming later.
• A release date for Last Stand was not announced, but it will be out on the same day across all platforms.

The Last Stand will be sold separately at $15 or in a season pass that grants all previous DLC’s for $40. Also, note that this will indeed be the last DLC for The Division.
