The Division 2 servers will be offline on July 15 for an extended maintenance period. Ubisoft plans to use this time to launch the Year 7 Season 1.2 patch, which includes several fixes for the Battle for Brooklyn DLC, changes to gameplay modifiers, UI improvements, and a new crossover event. This means players should expect a bit of a wait before jumping back in.
The downtime starts at 9:30 am CEST / 3:30 am EDT / 12:30 am PDT / 3:30 pm HKT and will last approximately five hours, which is longer than the usual three-hour maintenance window. Servers are expected to be back online around 2:30 pm CEST / 8:30 am EDT / 5:30 am PDT / 8:30 pm HKT, though there might be delays if the update takes longer than planned.
Ubisoft has already shared the patch notes ahead of time, so you know exactly what to look forward to once the servers return.
The Division 2 Y7S1.2 Patch Notes
Battle for Brooklyn
- Fixed an issue where the Seasons vendor in Brooklyn was selling regular vendor gear instead of caches.
- Fixed a problem where the Cleaner Engineer’s turret applied Purple Flame Corrosion outside of Brooklyn.
Global Modifier (Hard-Core)
- When you eliminate an enemy marked with an attribute you’ve already maxed, a small portion of that attribute’s value will now transfer to any non-maxed attributes instead.
UI
- Fixed the Call for Backup notification not appearing for players in any Settlement.
- Added a new UI element on the Scouts Screen showing overall progress for each scout.
Vanity
Several shirts are now compatible with one-strap backpacks, including:
- Agent Yeong-Ja Fall Jacket
- Agent Yeong-Ja Spring Jacket
- Agent Yeong-Ja Jacket
- Agent Jacket
- Canvas Hoodie
New one-strap versions have been added for these backpacks:
- 3C Backpack
- Corporate Cowboy Backpack

Other
- The Division 2 x Payday event goes live from July 15 to July 29. You can find all the details here.
- Fixed Manny’s brief voice-over playing repeatedly after login or fast travel.
- Fixed an issue preventing grenades from being thrown through gaps in a certain interior environment.

With this new event and several fixes, it wouldn’t be surprising if Ubisoft releases a follow-up patch to address any bugs that might appear after the update.
