Just this past E3 at Ubisoft’s press conference the publisher showcased the three upcoming story expansion episodes that will be making its way to the March-released The Division 2. With Episode One ‘D.C. Outskirts: Expeditions’ dropping back in July, the following Episode Two was left unscheduled to release since then.
That was until this week as Ubisoft and Massive Entertainment revealed that Pentagon: The Last Castle will be hitting all platforms on October 15th next Tuesday. Announcing this news with a new trailer for the approaching story expansion which you can view below:
Next week will also debut Title Update 6 which will launch both the upcoming episode alongside a handful of additional features as well. Given the implication from the title alone, agents must recapture the United States Pentagon after Black Tusk invades the national building and attempts to release a lethal outbreak upon the very nation.
For Year 1 Pass owners, Ubisoft highlights the addition of 2 new assignments, the Technician Specialist, one week early access to the latest episode for the game. In-game changes that will be releasing next week list increased stash space, weapon rebalancing, updated vendors, targeted loot, and standard UI improvements.
Ubisoft also reflects on the feedback following the release of Operation: Dark Hour, the first raid for The Division 2. The team reaffirms the decision to delay the upcoming second raid that was initially scheduled to release with next week’s update “ensure the second raid not only meets our standards, but yours as well. As for when players can expect the next raid is shared to release sometime next year in 2020.
