The Division‘s Survival Expansion was previously released for Xbox One and PC. Now, the expansion is available for PS4. It arrived on the PS4 on December 20, which includes a patch that makes it available for PS4 Pro, which allowed for a better frame rate and more.
The official trailer starts out with your character on a helicopter before it gets wrecked and you find yourself in a snowy, icy area. You’re then seen walking around and trying to stay warm by standing next to a fire. Next, you’re in a fire fight against other enemies and players. Your goal is to find the cure and escape from the area alive.
The main thing that The Division‘s Survival Expansion did was turn New York City into a frozen world. The expansion allows for up to 24 players to play against each other. In the expansion, supplies and gear are scarce. Players have to survive both the elements and each other. The enemies are level 34 and all of the weapons that you fire from your hips will have a harder recoil. Pistols are affected the most, while rifles are affected the least. The stash size has increase from 70 to 150 total items.
Survival is included with The Division‘s $40 season pass or it can be purchased individually for $15. It’s the game’s second expansion, following the Underground. The third and final expansion, Last Stand, is expected to be released in early 2017.
As part of an agreement between Microsoft and Ubisoft, all of The Division‘s DLC content will be released for Xbox One and PC before PS4.
