Warlords of New York bosses

The Division 2 Warlords of New York DLC sends you back to the Big Apple

There’s plenty of life yet in Ubisoft’s third person shooter The Division 2 as they’re rolling out a new expansion dubbed the Warlords of New York that sees players taking on rogue Division agent Aaron Keener who has gone barmy with his own agenda for world domination.

Warlords of New York firefightThe expansion pack is narrative driven, needs the base game to work and will take place in a separate area of Lower Manhattan, a former Dark Zone that was hit by a hurricane and which has resulted in unique scenarios like flood-laden streets and oil slicks from beached tankers. Naturally, as a Division agent, it’s your job to haul Aaron Keener in but he’s naturally not easy to reach from the get-go as you’ll have to take out his minions first to get access to him.

In keeping with tropes for final bosses, each of Keener’s minions has a unique skill and method of attack but seeing as they’re all former Division agents gone bonkers, they’re all dangerous in their own way. One of them is a deranged pyromaniac while another uses drones like a master violinist. Well, flying ones with mounted machine guns that is. Fortunately, offing each of them means you get their skills too in a Megaman like fashion.

This new area of Lower Manhattan is not immediately reachable for new players as you’ll need to be Level 30 to get there but the game does have a free Level 30 boost to jump a new player straight to the requisite level to immediately access the new content.Warlords of New York ruins

Other upgrades include an overhaul of the user interface when selecting weapons and gear so that you get a better picture of how your gear interacts with each other and fine tuning a build. The game also sees an additional level cap increase from Level 30 to Level 40 as well as an infinite progression system, new gear and new weapons.

Ubisoft are also issuing new time-limited Global in-game events which will reward players who complete specific tasks. There will also be regularly sequenced 3-month long endgame events doled out regularly that have unique narratives and rewards to be earned too. All this makes for a rewarding affair for regular players and now’s as good a time as any to hop into the Division 2 bet it as a new player or a seasoned vet.
