Tom Clancy's The Division 2 has launched its third season of year six, aptly named "Burden of Truth." This season beckons agents to dive deeper into the narrative, following the trail of Kelso across Washington, D.C., guided by her enigmatic clues. As players track her down, they'll uncover more about Lau's recruitment and delve into the mysterious "Cassandra" mission.
A key highlight of this season is the introduction of the Rogue Momentum system, which revolutionizes combat by incentivizing aggressive playstyles. By taking down enemies and completing combat challenges, players accumulate momentum. While regular kills provide a small increase, the meter surges with critical hits, skill combinations, multi-kills, and defeating elite foes. As momentum builds, players gain enhanced abilities such as increased movement speed, faster reloads, heightened damage output, and quicker firing rates. When momentum reaches its zenith, the Overcharge feature activates, significantly reducing ability cooldowns.
Alongside these dynamic combat changes, "Burden of Truth" introduces new weapons and gear to the mix. Owners of the Warlords of New York DLC and Year 1 Pass are treated to an expanded inventory with 50 additional slots. Among the new items are the exotic SMG Oxpecker and the tactical Exodus gloves. Two fresh brands, Refactor and Shiny Monkey, offer innovative gear choices, while named weapons like the Rusty Classic RPK-74 and Goalie FAL come with unique talents that allow players to fine-tune their builds. Available across all platforms, Ubisoft is keen to gather player feedback to enhance future updates.
