Raids and Free DLC Have Been Confirmed for The Division 2

During the E3 2018 Ubisoft press conference taking place on Monday, June 11th, it was announced that The Division 2 will feature end-game content in the form of Raids, which was met with loud cheers from the crowd. The Division did not feature fully fleshed out raids and the missing piece of en-game content for the title was a sour spot for many players.

However, now fans of the looter shooter franchise will be able to take part in the cooperative experience of raids in The Division 2. Raids in The Division 2 will be eight player end game activities. 

It was also announced during the Ubisoft E3 2018 press conference that the title will feature completely free post launch content in the form of three episodes that will be available to all players. The free three episodes of DLC content for The Division 2 will be composed of a year's worth of "story-driven missions, map expansions, and new modes," according to The Division 2 blog. 

The Division 2 will be taking place in Washington DC and will task plaers with the challenge of taking on the role of agents who must work to stop dangerous enemy factions from taking control of the country after it has been ravaged by the lethal strain of the small pox virus that has been contained.

Ubisoft states in its The Division 2 blog, "As a universally-regarded seat of power, if D.C. falls, the nation falls." which means that your mission of rescuing the city and its inhabitants is of a vital importance.

With The Division 2 including solid looking graphics and gameplay so far, raids and free post launch content in the form of three episodes, the future of the title is looking very bright, and fans are no doubt anxiously awaiting the March 15th, 2019 release date of the title.
