Learning from Destiny, Ubisoft details a year of content for The Division

Ubisoft is about to launch its next major franchise, and the company is taking notes from the competition about how to avoid disappointing fans.

Tom Clancy’s The Division, an apocalyptic shooter set in New York, has a year of extra content in the works, and the publisher is providing a detailed roadmap for when fans can expect everything to roll out. Ubisoft is planning on using a combination of free updates in the months after the March 8 release along with a staggered launch of paid expansions to keep fans engaged. This is crucial for an online game that requires a steady stream of paying players to justify its online infrastructure. And Ubisoft’s openness seems to suggest it has learned a lot from publisher Activision and developer Bungie’s Destiny.
