Other changes detailed.

Posted By | On 14th, Apr. 2017

Ubisoft Massive hosted its latest State of the Game broadcast for Tom Clancy’s The Division and made quite a few announcements. Its next major update will be update 1.6.1 and while still targeting a May release, it’s confirmed that Loadouts will be included.

A public test server is being prepped for the update but a fixed date will only be provided once the build is stable. This PTS will only be available on PC.

Other changes coming in update 1.6.1 include Proficiency Marks in Last Stand for additional rewards and new mechanics to prevent spawn camping; changes to the Dark Zone map that will limit hiding spots for manhunts; landmark clearing in the DZ offering XP, currency and loot that won’t need to be extracted; changes to the Airburst Seeker Mine; fixes for throwable skills like First Aid and Support Station; and more that’s yet to be revealed.
