Tom Clancy's The Division 2 heads to Central Park for a new horror-tinged expansion

The Division 2 is about to send players to one of New York City's most recognizable locations, and it's doing so at almost exactly the same time that Nintendo is sending players back to Hyrule.

On Thursday, Ubisoft announced that The Division 2: Echoes of Central Park will launch on Nov. 3, just two days before The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time arrives on Nintendo Switch 2 on Nov. 5. So while Link is preparing to save Hyrule once again, Division agents will be heading into a very different kind of legendary forest.

Ubisoft showed off the DLC in a new gameplay reveal today as part of its Echoes of Central Park showcase, giving us our first substantial look at the expansion following its announcement at Gamescom.

The timing could be a risky move for Ubisoft, putting Echoes of Central Park just two days ahead of an all-time classic getting a major remake — though the two games could be targeting audiences different enough that both have room to succeed.

Echoes of Central Park will finally make Central Park an explorable location in The Division series. The park was used as a mass burial ground during the original outbreak, and years later, it has become an overgrown and ominous place surrounded by rumors about what might be lurking inside.

The DLC begins when the Division intercepts a distress signal coming from deep within the park.
