What the short trailer for The Division Heartland does show is that if The Division players are looking for more content, the new game will deliver it. Some may worry Ubisoft is hiding the game's monetization to avoid criticism, though it is unclear if that is the case. That's perhaps worrying, especially since The Division Heartland is a free-to-play game.
With a release date tentatively planned as soon as late 2022, it's surprising how little of the game has been shown. Why Ubisoft has been so withholding of The Division Heartland content isn't clear. It could very well be exactly like The Division 2, only heavily monetized and build around live service progression systems given its free-to-play nature. It's described as a survival game, oddly enough, but it does clearly feature traditional The Division co-op combat scenarios, crafting, a base of operations, and a familiar story-based mission structure. There's a main street lined with coffee shops and small businesses, a downtown area with a mix of mid-sized business offices, subdivisions of single-family housing, and even what looks like nuclear power plant cooling towers that give The Division Heartland a bit of The Simpsons je ne sais quoi.Įxactly what The Division Heartland's gameplay will be remains a grand mystery, however. It's named Silver Creek and looks like any give American city. In the new trailer for The Division Heartland, dubbed a "Developer Intro" to the game, a much more in-depth look at the game's setting is shown.

Where The Division and The Division 2 both take place in reality-based major urban areas, however, The Division Heartland takes place in a fictional rural community. It's also still planned to be a free-to-play standalone experience, separate but based in the same world around the same time period as the other The Division games. The Division Heartland remains a spin-off from the main franchise of The Division. Developed by Red Storm Entertainment, it seems The Division Heartland remains on track and could arrive sooner than expected. It's been some time since The Division Heartland was last showcased due to some substantial delays, with some questioning whether Ubisoft had changed plans for The Division franchise going forward. As part of Saturday's Ubisoft Forward presentation, Ubisoft shared new information regarding its in-development free-to-play shooter The Division Heartland.
