Tom Clancy's The Division 2 has now launched into the third season of its sixth year, dubbed Burden of Truth. This season beckons agents to immerse themselves further into the narrative, tracking down Kelso across Washington, D.C., guided by her enigmatic clues. As players pursue her, they'll uncover more about Lau's recruitment and delve into the mysterious "Cassandra" mission.
A highlight of this season is the introduction of the Rogue Momentum system, which revolutionizes combat by incentivizing aggressive tactics. Players can gain momentum by eliminating foes and accomplishing combat challenges. While regular kills contribute a slight increase, the meter surges with critical hits, skill combinations, multi-kills, and the defeat of elite enemies. As momentum builds, players unlock enhanced abilities, including accelerated movement, faster reloads, increased damage output, and heightened firing rates. At its zenith, the Overcharge feature activates, significantly reducing ability cooldowns.
Complementing the updated combat system, Burden of Truth introduces new weapons and gear. Those who own the Warlords of New York DLC and the Year 1 Pass will benefit from an expanded inventory, gaining 50 additional slots.
Among the new additions are the exotic SMG Oxpecker and the tactical Exodus gloves. The season also introduces two new brands, Refactor and Shiny Monkey, offering fresh gear options. Players can also explore named weapons such as the Rusty Classic RPK-74 and Goalie FAL, each boasting unique talents that enable players to fine-tune their builds. Available across all platforms, Ubisoft is keen to gather player feedback to enhance future updates.
