A leak from the Playstation magazine gives clues as to when we can expect new information about The Division 2. The upcoming shared-world shooter is likely to be the topic next week.
In the last few days, there have been several leaks about The Division 2. Much suggests that we can expect a big pile of information next week.
Specifically, the official Playstation Magazine UK is likely to feature The Division 2 as a major topic. Sony has also apparently revealed when the embargo on The Division 2 will lift. We summarize the leaks for you.
The Division 2 on the cover of Playstation Magazine UK
This was leaked: The cover of the upcoming issue of the British Playstation Magazine was leaked online. It features The Division 2, labeled as “the biggest co-op shooter of 2019.”
What does the cover reveal? Not much at first, but there are also interesting statements from the magazine’s Twitter account. As Division YouTuber Epic Slay3rs shows in his video, it was also revealed when the official embargo for The Division 2 will be lifted.
It was originally set for January 15, as seen on the magazine’s cover. However, Ubisoft apparently decided to move the embargo to January 17.
If this information is correct, we can likely expect a lot of new information about The Division 2 starting next Thursday. Perhaps there will even be a State of the Game.
The last live stream from the Division developers was already 2 months ago, but it usually takes place on Thursdays. Therefore, it would be a good opportunity to restart the originally weekly stream.

Further leaks talk about campaign length and Dark Zone
In his video, Epic Slay3rs discusses further leaks. An English retail dealer has published a description of The Division 2.
This is what the retailer description says: The short text section estimates the campaign length at around 40 hours. Thus, it would be a little more extensive than the campaign of The Division 1.
There is also a short text about the Dark Zone. It mentions a revised PvP experience that aims to ensure a fair experience for all players regardless of their progress. At first glance, this sounds like normalized player stats, similar to what was the case in the PvP modes of the first part.
However, this information should be taken with caution, as they are promotional texts. Division fans will have to wait until Ubisoft and the developer Massive end the information drought.
The Division 2 is set to be released on March 15. Whether it’s worth starting the first part beforehand, you can find out in our special.
