Tom Clancy's The Division 2 has officially launched its third season of year six, titled "Burden of Truth." This season invites players to immerse themselves further into the gripping narrative, as they track down Kelso across Washington, D.C., guided by her enigmatic clues. Along this journey, agents will uncover more about Lau's recruitment process and the mysterious "Cassandra" mission, adding depth to the storyline.
A highlight of this season is the introduction of the Rogue Momentum system, which revolutionizes combat dynamics by promoting aggressive playstyles. Players can build momentum by defeating enemies and completing combat tasks. While standard kills provide a modest boost, the system rewards critical hits, skill combos, multi-kills, and the elimination of elite adversaries with accelerated momentum growth. As players accumulate momentum, they gain enhanced abilities, including faster movement, quicker reload times, increased damage output, and heightened firing speed. At its peak, the Overcharge feature activates, significantly reducing ability cooldowns and allowing for more intense gameplay.
Alongside the revamped combat mechanics, "Burden of Truth" introduces new weaponry and gear to the game. Players who own the Warlords of New York DLC and the Year 1 Pass will benefit from an expanded inventory, gaining 50 additional slots. Notable new additions include the exotic SMG Oxpecker and the tactical Exodus gloves. The season also introduces two new brands, Refactor and Shiny Monkey, offering innovative gear options. Named weapons such as the Rusty Classic RPK-74 and Goalie FAL come with unique talents, enabling players to fine-tune their builds to suit their playstyle. Available across all platforms, Ubisoft is keen to gather player feedback to enhance future updates.
