Ubisoft’s Massive Entertainment is not finished with The Division 2. After teasing a snowy version of Washington, DC last month, they have now set a date for the next big reveal. The Division 2 will be featured at Gamescom 2025, happening next week, where we will finally get a look at what’s coming next for the game.
Ubisoft shared a cryptic message on X, stating, “SHD scanners picked up unusual activity. Intel arrives at Gamescom. Stay frosty, Agents.” Alongside the message was an image hinting at a snowy environment, suggesting a cold twist for the game’s setting.
Fans have started to speculate about a return of the Survival mode, which first appeared in the original The Division back in 2016. That mode transformed Manhattan into a harsh, wintry battleground where players fought to survive brutal conditions. Given the new snowy visuals featuring DC, it’s easy to see why many expect Survival 2.0 to make a comeback. Of course, it’s wise to keep expectations measured, but the community’s excitement is hard to ignore.
Besides The Division 2, Ubisoft also confirmed that The Division Resurgence, their upcoming free-to-play mobile game, will have a presence at Gamescom. Two dedicated panels will cover both titles, and we hope to get a release date or at least an open beta announcement for Resurgence.
