The Division 2 / Expansion (TU8)
Division 2 Warlords of New York Guide
The expansion launched on March 3, 2020 as Title Update 8, back to where it all began, hunting the First Rogue through a hurricane-hit Manhattan. It also rebooted the entire endgame underneath the campaign. Our plain-language summary below: full texts live on Ubisoft's news hub.
Keener Campaign
A bio-attack levels City Hall and the trail leads to Lower Manhattan: four rogue warlords. Theo Parnell, James Dragov, Javier Kajika and Vivian Conley, each holding a zone, with Keener waiting on Liberty Island. New Haven base, no district level gates, and yes, a puppy. The seasonal manhunts that followed all build on this hunt, see manhunts hub.
New Endgame
| Level 40 & SHD Levels | Cap rises 30 to 40 with a free boost, then infinite SHD points across Offense, Defense, Utility, Misc and endless Scavenging, your watch face shows it off. |
|---|---|
| Seasons | Three-month arcs with manhunts, leagues, events and a reward track. Season 1 Shadow Tide started one week later, see our Shadow Tide guide. |
| Legendary Difficulty | Strongholds at Roosevelt, Capitol and DUA guarded by an elite Black Tusk sub-faction, the hardest PvE outside raids. |
| Gear 2.0 | Every brand, set and exotic reworked; Skill Power removed; clearer stats; crafting bench scales to your level. |
