[QUOTE="Admin, post: 59010, member: 1"] Ubisoft has said that it is unlikely The Division 2 will see native PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions as that would mean leaving behind players who are playing on the last generation of consoles. Speaking to [URL='https://mp1st.com/news/the-division-2-next-gen-versions-unlikely-as-taking-full-advantage-would-leave-last-gen-behind']MP1st[/URL], creative director Yannick Banchereau explained why Ubisoft hadn’t released a new version of the game on current generation consoles. “That’s unlikely because if we really wanted to take full advantage of those, since we only have one version of the game that is available on all platforms, taking full advantage of those would mean that the game would no longer be available on the old generations,” he said. Beanchereau continued: “We still have a lot of players that play on all generations and we are not ready to leave them behind and ask them to upgrade. Right now we are trying to make sure every time we add something, it still runs smoothly on the old gen as well.” While there won’t be PS5 or Xbox Series X|S versions of The Division 2 any time soon, Ubisoft did release a patch back in 2021 that gave the game a [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/the-division-2-gets-a-next-gen-upgrade-next-week']4K and 60 FPS upgrade for those consoles[/URL]. Ubisoft has already confirmed its fifth year of support for The Division 2 starting in June 2023, with Season 1 including a rogue-lite feature called [URL='https://www.ign.com/videos/the-division-2s-new-rogue-lite-mode-offers-a-hassle-free-way-to-jump-back-in']Descent Mode[/URL].
