Tom Clancy's The Division 2 has officially launched into its third season of year six, titled "Burden of Truth." This season beckons agents to immerse themselves further into the narrative, embarking on a quest to find Kelso across Washington, D.C., guided by her enigmatic clues. As players progress, they'll uncover more about Lau's recruitment 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 by promoting aggressive playstyles. Players can build momentum by defeating enemies and accomplishing combat objectives. While standard kills provide a small increase, the momentum meter surges with critical hits, skill combinations, multi-kills, and the elimination of elite foes. As momentum builds, players gain enhanced abilities, including faster movement, quicker reloads, increased damage output, and higher firing rates. At its peak, the Overcharge feature activates, significantly reducing ability cooldowns, allowing for relentless action.
Alongside the new combat mechanics, "Burden of Truth" introduces an array of new weapons and gear. Players with the Warlords of New York DLC and Year 1 Pass will benefit from an expanded inventory, gaining 50 additional slots. Standout items include the exotic SMG Oxpecker and the tactical Exodus gloves. New brands, Refactor and Shiny Monkey, offer fresh gear options, while named weapons such as the Rusty Classic RPK-74 and Goalie FAL come with unique talents, enabling players to fine-tune their builds. Available across all platforms, Ubisoft is keen to gather player feedback to enhance future updates.
