What exactly is The Division 1? In the shooter, you take on the role of an agent of the special unit “The Division”. A virus has broken out and partially paralyzed public life. People are fighting for mere survival and rely entirely on you.
You must complete missions in the open world to make the world a little better. You fight against mercenaries and try to rebuild the world. In the process, you collect weapons and equipment to improve your loadout. All of this takes place in New York during winter.
Since 2019, the sequel to The Division has been on the market. Here, you play in Washington D.C. However, if you haven’t explored the world of The Division at all, you should definitely start with Part 1. Here you will learn the story, and besides, it’s the first part that you can currently grab for free.
