E3 2019: The Division 2 Year-One Roadmap Goes Back To New York

At E3 2019, Ubisoft gave more details about its year-one roadmap for The Division 2. The first year of free content will include a series of three-story episodes, which will explore more of the Washington DC area and even go back to New York City.

The first episode, now narrowed from a summer release to July, is called DC Outskirts: Expeditions. It will let you explore the woodlands surrounding DC, including the Washington National Zoo. The mission is to find the leader of the Outcasts, and the new Expeditions mechanic will offer weekly missions to progress through the wings of Trinity College.

The second episode, scheduled for fall, is Pentagon: The Last Castle. You’ll have to defend the Pentagon from Black Tusk and have access to The Division 2’s second 8-player Raid. This one will take place in the middle of an active foundry.
