What to expect from The Division 2 Y8S2 Into the Dark
The second season of Year 8 in The Division 2 will be focused on the Dark Zone mode. So far, most of the work this year has been focused on PvE content. For a change, the PvP will now get a major rebalance and changes.
We will also have a global modifier related strictly to the Dark Zone mode. I am excited to find out how the changes will affect the mode. I have always avoided the Dark Zone, but it might be time for us to revisit the PvP side of things.
We will also have a new kill squad joining the Retaliation section of the game. New scout missions are also coming for those who love Manhunt campaigns. Finally, we will have a new season pass, exotics, and more. There’s also a chance that we get a Prototype item from the pass, but that’s just me hoping. We will have more information once the season goes live tomorrow.
