The add-on sees the twin assassins assist Duleep Singh confront the Templars while attempting to reclaim his heritage as the last Maharaja; this means completing around ten new missions set in London. The content is also included in the Season Pass, which also contains the Jack the Ripper DLC. The latter is teased in the last third of the trailer, which also showcases Jacob and Evie Frye fighting assorted opponents.

The post Two New TV Spots for The Division appeared first on Lightning Gaming News.

First off, two free updates will arrive in April and May, with the first introducing Incursions, a squad-oriented end-game activity featuring powerful enemies and high-level loot, as well as limited loot trading for those in the same group. The clip suggests that this may include taking down armoured military vehicles, as we see an APC with a yellow health bar. The second update in May is called Conflict and it will add new Dark Zone features as well as a new incursion set in Columbus Circle.

Following that are the three expansions in the Season Pass, which you can read about here, arriving in June, Summer and Winter respectively; the trailer gives us a glimpse of each of these three and we remain eager to see and know more. The trailer mentions that The Last Stand will involve Division agents teaming up and building defences to face a new rising threat, which certainly sounds different and intriguing.

While we already know that the MMO-looter-third-person-shooter-RPG looks really good, the PC version looks even better than its console counterparts due to some additional features, specifically support for technology such as HBAO+ and PCSS shadows by the developers and NVIDIA. Technical Directior Anders Holmquist shows off exactly what these effects are, and illustrates how the make a noticeable difference in what you see on your screen.

Meanwhile, the launch trailer reminds players of the fight to take back the city, which is in the grip of a devastating pandemic that has led to the rise of a few hostile factions. Agents of the Division must now unite and fight to establish a base of operations, and do what they can to help the survivors and eliminate the criminal elements.

This one, best watched at max resolution, was captured in 60 Frames Per Second on PC and it showcases those lovely visual features which make the MMO shooter-RPG look absolutely great on that platform. If you got a chance to participate in of the recent betas, then you already known that regardless of platform the game looks great. Having tried it on the PC, I happily admit that I was blown away by the weather particle effects, with blizzards sometimes even changing the way I played. Volumetric fog, Dynamic global illumination, real-time destruction, realistic weather particles and real-time reflections are some of the features The Division boasts of.

The open beta will have a new story mission including the one which was featured in the closed-beta and various other dark zone changes are also added. Participants will receive a special in-game reward which can be redeemed  in Uplay for the full game when it releases on 08^th March.

While sadly all cinematic, the clip highlights the differences between New York pre-and-mid/post-pandemic, with factions such as the Rikers and Cleaners wreaking havoc, and agents of The Division arising from different walks of life to unite and fight together to take back the city and protect the innocent.

Secondly, the sales report for the quarter reveals that Ubisoft intends to launch several games in 2016-2017; titles named include the medieval combat action game For Honor, the hit cartoon TV series based South Park: the Fractured but Whole, open-world tactical action game Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands, and the next Watch Dogs game, which earlier rumours suggested will take place in San Francisco.

The beta will contain a host of various tweaks and improvements as well as a new story mission to play through, in addition to all that was in the recent Closed Beta. There is also a new trailer accompanying the announcement, and it shows the four main hostile factions agents will face in pandemic-ridden New York; the Rioters were plentiful in the recent Beta and diligent players would likely have encountered some of the hazmat suit-donning Cleaners as well, but the full game will also include the Rikers (those who escaped from Riker’s Island prison) and the Last Man Battalion, with the latter a private military company consisting of mostly former soldiers with solid weaponry.
