The Division 3 is “shaping up to be a monster” according to Ubisoft

The Division is one of Ubisoft’s more interesting franchises. While the first game disappointed many due to a number of visual downgrades when compared to its pre-release materials, the series did find a dedicated audience who enjoyed the gameplay loop. That said, it’s now been almost 7 years since The Division 2’s launch and while fans await the previously-announced 3rd entry, Ubisoft have offered some slight teasers, claiming it to be “shaping up to be a monster.”

During the New Game+ Showcase, The Division 3’s executive producer Julian Gerighty offered an update on the long-awaited threequel.

While we did not get any footage of the title, according to Gerighty: “It’s shaping up to be a monster. I can’t really say anything more than that. But this is within these walls in Massive. We are working extremely hard on something that I think will be as big an impact as Division 1 was.”

As mentioned, while The Division as a series does have its problems, the first game did indeed make a big impact back in the day – especially in its pre-release period where the game served as a bit of a then-next-gen showpiece.

Given that we’ve seen nothing from The Division 3 yet, it is possible that Ubisoft are planning to line the title up with the next-gen PS6, which would make for quite a notable upgrade over 2019’s Division 2. Regardless, here’s to hoping that when The Division 3 is shown off that Ubisoft are more honest in their presentation of the title.
