The Division 2 Update News: Release Date, Changes, New Content

---

Earlier this week the Public Test Server for Title Update 5 for The Division 2 went live. In the coming weeks, some new content and features are being tested. Ubisoft doesn't just test for bugs. They also say that players who participate in the testing receive a survey after each testing phase to provide as much feedback as possible to the development team.

The first part of the fifth title update for The Division 2 is slated to arrive on Tuesday, July 30th, with early access for Year One pass owners starting on Tuesday, July 23rd. If you don't own the Year One pass, this content will unlock one week later, on July 30. For the Expedition, you'll get to explore both the first and second areas straightaway. The third area will unlock a week later for all players. The Division 2 Title Update 5 is the second major content update for the looter shooter, and coincides with the Episode 1 content drop, called D.C. Outskirts: Expeditions. This first update piece will feature two new main missions and the first two Investigation Areas of Kenly College. All balance changes, gameplay changes, new exotics and weapons will be available for everyone on July 23.

Expeditions are new PVE events that unfold in multiple stages. You'll explore each "investigation area," called a wing, as they unlock, with the ultimate goal of finding friendly survivors from an assaulted military convoy. Each wing is themed, and if you complete them all you'll unlock a treasure room full of loot.
