The two upcoming titles will both diverge from the standard AAA experience that previous games in the franchise have created. Tom Clancy’s Resurgence will be released as a mobile game, and the upcoming The Division: Heartland will be a free-to-play product. While few details are currently known about the projects, fans can expect to hear more from Ubisoft very soon.

In a recent post on Twitter, the developers of The Division 2 announced that updates to the title will be discussed at the Ubisoft Forward event on September 10, along with details about The Division: Heartland and The Division: Resurgence. The 2022 Ubisoft Forward will not focus solely on Tom Clancy titles, but will instead give information about all the current and upcoming games that the developer has in store for players. Many are expecting Ubisoft to announce multiple free-to-play titles like Heartland at the event.
The news that Ubisoft is creating more content in the Division universe is great for fans of the Tom Clancy franchise. Heartland will likely be a The Division battle royale title, a free experience that focuses on competitive PvP and microtransactions. While some players might not have wanted such a game, it can’t be denied that free-to-play multiplayer titles make sense from a development standpoint. As other franchises have moved to a free model, like Halo, Destiny, and Call of Duty, it should come as no surprise that Ubisoft has decided to do the same.
Hopefully, the title will deliver a quality experience that is not inhibited by its free status. Indeed, as both Heartland and The Resurgence are being developed, fans will have to trust Ubisoft to produce content that will be both entertaining and high-quality. Though it may seem worrying that the studio has so many projects in development, from The Division to the upcoming Assassin’s Creed Mirage, gamers can find solace in the many previous titles that Ubisoft has produced to international acclaim.
The Division 2 is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
