The Division’s Incursions Update is Live!

Today is the day folks. Well, that is if you’ve been eagerly awaiting the Incursions update for Tom Clancy’s The Division!

Ubisoft has released the first of two free updates for The Division today, as a part of their post-launch plan to keep players interested after completing the campaign. This means new features (like item trading), rare loot, and new activities.

Take a look at the list below to see what’s in store:

NEW ACTIVITIES:
•       New Incursion Falcon Lost: Developed specifically for squad play, players team up with the Joint Task Force in an epic fight against the Last Man Battalion and their new deadly weapon.
•       Dark Zone Supply Drops: Players need to be on the lookout for air supply drops in the Dark Zone from Division command. These global events provide non-contaminated gear that are ready to use and don’t require extraction.
•       Assignments: Tackled alone or with other agents, these lucrative timed assignments will offer players additional rewards.

NEW FEATURES:
•       Trading: As one of the community’s most-wanted features, loot trading has been added to allow players to share items within the same group by simply dropping them from their inventory.
•       Gear Score: Now players can size up fellow agents and gauge the power of items by comparing gear scores.

NEW ITEMS:
•       Gear Sets: By completing challenging activities in Manhattan, players can collect and wear new gear sets to unlock powerful bonuses and stats. Find the set that best suits your playstyle:
–       Tactician’s Authority – Enhances electronics and support capabilities.
–       Striker’s Battlegear – Provides bonuses for assault capabilities.
–       Sentry’s Call – Enhances marksman capabilities.
–       Path of the Nomad – Provides bonuses for lone wanderers.

Today also marks the debut of Operation ISAC – an in-game video series that delivers weekly assignments to players every Tuesday at Noon CET (3:00AM PT, 6:00AM ET). An assortment of bug fixes, including one addressing the infamous high-end backpack glitch that locked some players out of the game, is the icing on the cake.

We haven’t had our chance to test out these fixes/play through Falcon Lost yet, so we can’t say whether this update will be well received or not. We’ll share our thoughts in due time. The good news though, it that there is more for Division fans to do!
