The Division 2 Upcoming DLC Titled “Echoes of Central Park;” Massive’s Intent Wasn’t Just Another Story DLC
Ubisoft’s Massive Entertainment has finally revealed the title of the upcoming premium expansion for The Division 2, and it’s “Echoes of Central Park.”
While there’s no release date set for it yet, the studio also talked a bit about the DLC and its goal.
Sadly, there’s no trailer to accompany the title reveal, but they did give us new artwork. The complete reveal is set for September 24, so expect a trailer then.
The Division 2 Upcoming DLC Art Revealed
Info about the upcoming DLC before its big reveal on September 24:
- Official DLC title: “Echoes of Central Park”
- The Division has a special connection with New York City, but there’s one iconic place that we haven’t explored yet – Central Park
- Echoes of Central Park is rooted in Mystery and Fear and will explore a darker tone
- In the DLC, the Upper West Side is petrified with fear
- Division Agents will come to Central Park to answer a distress call coming from inside the park
- Agents have no idea what’s inside, or what happened there since the outbreak
- As a Division Agent, you’ll have to untangle the mysteries, and find help to prepare and finally be able to enter the park and face what’s inside
- This DLC gives the Division team an opportunity to explore a different type of enemy for the Division … Fear
- Exploring the themes of horror and fear, while remaining true to the Clancy identity of The Division was a very interesting and exciting challenge, and an opportunity to bring something new to the brand.
- The intent wasn’t to just another story DLC, as the devs wanted to have a stronger focus on gameplay
- Full reveal of the DLC will be held Sept. 24.
There’s a new game update set for release tomorrow, so agents have something to do for now.
Chances are, this third DLC will be the last one before Massive pours all its efforts into The Division 3, which we haven’t heard anything about for months now, outside of its producer calling it a “monster.”
