The Division: Definitive Edition Has Been Quietly Released

Following a leak and with absolutely no fanfare from Ubisoft, The Division: Definitive Edition has been released on Xbox, PlayStation and PC storefronts for £45.

The reason for the lack of hype is immediately obvious: it has replaced the existing Gold Edition of the game and only adds a couple of extra items.

You get the three paid expansions, the Let It Snow cosmetic pack, the Parade cosmetic pack and a further 6 cosmetic packs. Basically, it’s the base game plus all the additional content that was released.

Strictly speaking, if you didn’t own anything before buying it, the new Definitive Edition is better value than the Gold Edition as it contains a few more cosmetic packs for the same price.

This new version also doesn’t have native PS5/Xbox Series editions of the game, meaning there are no visual enhancement or other upgrades to get excited about it. It’s the same base game.

Although the game did get a random current-gen 60FPS patch on PS5 a few weeks ago, and supports 60FPS on Series S and X via Microsoft’s FPS Boost program as well.

Meanwhile, work on The Division 3 is underway. Ubisoft is currently undergoing massive changes in a big to stop itself crumbling into dust, so the game is being handed over to one of the new “creative houses”.
