The Division Expansion II: Survival is out now

UbiSoft have released a new expansion update for The Division. Out now on Xbox and PC and due December 20th on PS4.

The game has always been about surviving in a hostile, disaster stricken New York City, but in this update titled 'Survival', they are taking it one step further.

"Stranded in the middle of a raging snow storm with only a sidearm and no skills available, you have to use every resource you can find in order to survive one of the most hostile environments in The Division. You’ll have to scavenge for food, weapons, water, drugs and clothes, all the while trying to finish your assigned mission – find the rumored antivirals to the Green Poison virus deep in the Dark Zone and extract them."

With matches in the new mode lasting up to 2 hours, you will have to fight against NPC's and battle or team up with other players while searching for food, shelter and gear and using your skills and crafting supplies and weapons to survive. THe rounds will reward you with new equipment based on how well you do, even if you don't survive.

This new game mode is a bold move into an intense and immersive multiplayer experience. Wil it be one that will bring the fans back into the game? If you have tried it let us know what you think of it below.
