The upcoming MMO shooter The Division will have an exclusive beta phase on Xbox One in December.
Gamespot reports from the Microsoft press conference at E3 that an exclusive beta phase for “Tom Clancy’s The Division” was announced there. It will take place in December of this year. A release of the post-apocalyptic shooter with coop and roleplay elements is scheduled for Q1 2016. In addition to Xbox One, it will also be available for PC and PlayStation 4.
It is another blow in the war between Sony and Microsoft for better deals with publishers. While Sony had the upper hand with Destiny, Xbox players have to miss out on some PvP maps and several exotic items, Microsoft seems to have scored some points with Ubisoft.
Let’s see what Sony announces overnight. A trailer and further details about the gameplay for “The Division” are expected.
Update: Here is the trailer.
