Ubisoft announces a huge treasure trove of information for The Division fans today: It’s working with a brand-new title in the franchise business called Tom Clancy’s The Division Heartland.
“Tom Clancy’s The Division Heartland, a free-to-play game set in The Division universe, is in development at our Red Storm studio. Having worked on Tom Clancy games since 1997, its extensive experience across numerous genres and games, most recently The Division and The Division 2, makes Red Storm a perfect fit for this project. Heartland is a standalone game that doesn’t require previous experience with the series but will provide an all new perspective on the universe in a new setting. The game will be made available in 2021-22 on PC, consoles, and cloud.”
Evidently, there’s a mobile video game in development, in addition to a material update for The Division 2 (with “an entirely new video game mode for The Division franchise business and also new approaches for levelling your agents with a focus on raising construct variety and also stability”), a new “transmedia” book, as well as a Netflix-backed film “inspired by the events of the initial video game [and also starring] Jessica Chastain and also Jake Gyllenhaal.” Signups for the free-to-play title tests are already live.
