The Division’s Year 2 content will be given to players for free, and will comprise of two expansion packs, Massive Entertainment creative director Julian Gerighty has told the Ubisoft blog.
Expansion 1: Will be based on an event system that drives players to activities that feature modifiers, leaderboards, and unique vanity items that will only be available through these activities. The team also plans to include a loadout feature that will let players switch between their favourite gear combinations, as well as a system to mark a player’s feats.
“[It] will reward players for different activities – long-term activities, short-term activities, and medium-term activities within the game,” says Gerighty. “Basically, our Division achievements, if you will.”
Expansion 2: Further away from release and as such Gerighty isn’t ready to reveal too much at this time. However, he notes it will be “more content-focused,” though this doesn’t necessarily mean new story missions.
“Story missions are tricky, but that doesn’t mean we won’t have narrative content,” he says. “We can’t really deliver story missions that will fit into the RPG aspects of the game in a simple way. So we’re not going to be doing the classic main mission type of thing, but narrative content is something that we are definitely looking at.”
Gerighty also skirted around the question of raising the game’s level cap, stating the team is exploring many options.
The Division Year 1 content included the premium Underground, Survival, and Last Stand expansions.
