Ubisoft announced today that Update 1.8 “Resistance” for Tom Clancy’s The Division will release simultaneously on all platforms this Fall. Update 1.8 “Resistance” will be the biggest free update so far for Tom Clancy’s The Division and introduces two new games modes while expanding the game map with a new area: West Side Pier.
As the press release reads, West Side Pier is a completely new area spread across two new zones and accessible for all players. Defeated factions were last seen converging towards the sector and seem to have started working together for the first time. The Division must investigate the area to confirm that factions are indeed forging an alliance and determine the reason for their sudden interest in this location. In addition to the variety of open world activities available across the whole map, West Side Pier will be home to two new game modes:
In Resistance (PvE mode), the different factions are teaming up for the first time to fight against Division agents. Varied enemy NPCs continuously spawn in waves as up to four agents try to survive for as long as they can and earn rewards.
In Skirmish (PvP mode), two teams of four players compete against each other to get the highest number of kills before the time expires. Teams earn points each time a downed enemy player is eliminated.
Division agents will also convene in a new social hub, Camp Clinton, from which they will be able to group up with other agents and adjust their gear before taking the fight to West Side Pier.
Additionally, Update 1.8 “Resistance” will include improvements to the Underground DLC, a revamp of the rogue mechanics, as well as an optimisation of the gear system, letting players improve the stats of their favourite equipment. Those looking to get more information about the new content included in Update 1.8 “Resistance” can tune into the Tom Clancy’s The Division State of the Game livestream on twitch.tv/thedivisiongame tomorrow, August 31ST, starting 4pm UK time.
Following the release of Update 1.7 earlier this summer, Update 1.8 “Resistance” is the second of the two substantial free updates planned for the Year 2 of Tom Clancy’s The Division. In addition to these major updates, and in line with the development team’s commitment to continuously updating and improving the game, Year 2 has already brought several gameplay and quality of life updates the Tom Clancy’s: The Division, and will continue to add more in the coming months.

Ubiblog: “The Division’s free 1.8 Update is coming this fall”
‘Autumn’ as the English-speaking world outside of North America generally refers to it.
Fall is an old English description for Autumn that the founding fathers took with them when they went to America.
So?
You’re welcome.
this is a american site. go complain on your british pc site.
I quoted directly from the Ubiblog, i.e. the blog of European company Ubisoft.
Props to Ubisoft for still adding free content to this game so long after release.
Dont know if I should finally get the game, totally disappointed from the game play videos I have seen, compared to the type of game that was teased before its release and am not talking graphics here.
to be completely fair its a great shooter…started on ps4 and then PC (holy shiet 60fps is like a vic secret model giving you a bj vs ps4 30fps)…honestly story missions and side missions take up a good 40-50 hours depending on difficulty and friends…other than that I stopped playing though (dark zone is not very good to me at least…other players live for that kind of thing)
one of my friends convinced me to buy this within first week of release, i have 10 hours of gameplay since then
Yes, people are still playing this, before some unfunny bellend says it.
It were proper bo, I tell thee. How’s R Kes?
Proper Bo I tell thee.
As you’re also a fan of Bo Selecta, I want to share this with you. Many years ago, an ex girlfriend of mine fell ill, the cause. Mumps. Which happened to make her face swell up for a few days, and so she was administered to hospital. I sent her this pic whilst she was sat in her hospital bed. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ee0a35003f642426b0ef8c0328b6e7edfbfde29159d3af9bceb453c07e76dd87.jpg
Glad to see they are still supporting this game.
Really enjoy the single player PVE. Underground is an excellent expansion.
PVP though is a turd.
John can i get an answer here
why are you littering DSO with articles about crap games with dead community?
do you have a quota to fill? or is Ubisoft giving you good ad money for this?
Why don’t you make a site so people can SP on it?
Game is far from dead. 😉
dead community?LOL.You expect people to stop playing cus your not playing?
does anyone else notice that the “skirmish” mode in the division is THE SAME skirmish mode in FOR HONOR 😀 4v4 and you earn points by killing another enemy..except in for honor is either 1000points/20 minutes vs the division timer only.
