Ubisoft Sets March Launch for The Division 2’s Hardcore Realism Mode

The 10th‑anniversary update retools combat plus resources for a stripped‑back challenge.

Overview

  • Ubisoft confirmed Realism Mode will arrive in March as part of The Division 2’s anniversary season.
  • The mode is available only to players who own the Warlords of New York expansion.
  • Features include pared‑back HUD and map elements, no XP or leveling progression within the mode, tougher lethality with ineffective limb shots and effective headshots, and scarcer ammunition.
  • The anniversary season includes a Tom Clancy collaboration, with reporting indicating cosmetic items tied to Splinter Cell, Rainbow Six Siege, and Ghost Recon.
  • Ubisoft will outline additional post‑season content in March; The Division 3 remains in development and a Definitive Edition of the original was spotted in Japan without an official announcement.
