Details on the new The Division 2 play mode are scarce at the moment. With tomorrow being April's Fools, and the PTS going live on the same day, there is the chance that this could be a prank, but thankfully we won't have to wait too long to learn more about this new play mode.

The Division 2 is now available on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Google Stadia worldwide. Learn more about the second entry in the series by checking out Kai's review.

In both terms of mechanics and gameplay, Tom Clancy's The Division 2 exceeds its predecessor in every way. The constant treadmill of being promised higher numbers on your gear never runs dry and there are more than enough side diversions throughout Washington DC to keep your inventory stocked with lots of high-end and exotic gear. While the constant fear of bugs and glitches mar an otherwise great experience, The Division 2 shows potential to be Ubisoft's best RPG in years.
