"Over the weekend, Twitter account Domen Gaming noticed ads for The Division: Definitive Edition at the Siege APAC Cup in Tokyo, which is presumably a yet-to-be-announced re-release of the 2016 looter-shooter. The ad was posted alongside another for a Division 2 trial mode, which earns participants a chance to win game-themed merch like hoodies, shirts, and caps."
"Ubisoft hasn't yet confirmed what The Division: Definitive Edition will be. While a proper remaster is possible, it should be noted that the game just received a 60 FPS update on PlayStation 5 last month. If I were to take a guess, Definitive Edition is probably a repackage of the original game, including all the updates and expansions, along with a few exclusive cosmetics."
"Re-releasing the original Division is a smart way to drum up excitement for the series' future. Despite its age, the first game holds up remarkably well. Sneaking through the snowy, post-lockdown streets of New York City is just as moody as it was in 2016, a credit to Massive's Snowdrop engine. The looter loop and extraction shooter elements still make for a compelling multiplayer RPG."
Massive Entertainment is marking The Division's 10th anniversary with promotions and a likely re-release called The Division: Definitive Edition, spotted in ads at a Tokyo event. The Definitive Edition may bundle the original 2016 game with all updates and expansions rather than a full remaster, especially after a recent 60 FPS PlayStation 5 update. Re-releasing the original offers newer players an accessible entry point, as the first game still delivers strong atmosphere, looter-loop gameplay, and extraction-shooter elements thanks to the Snowdrop engine. Massive is also running limited-time events and adding a Realism Mode to The Division 2 that makes combat more tactical and lethal.
