The Division 2 Episodes 1-3 detailed ahead of free weekend
Year One pass owners get access to all episodes a week early
The Division 2 has been out for almost three months now and while we’ve had some new content like the first Division 2 raid and the Division 2 Classified Assignments, we've yet to play any of the major content in the Year One pass. During Ubisoft’s E3 2019 press conference, more details were revealed and there’s not long to go until the first episode which will take players to the Washington National Zoo. Here’s the details straight from the Ubisoft blog about the next content coming to The Division 2:
Episode 1 is called D.C. Outskirts and will have players exploring outside of the main city for the first time, as you hunt for President Ellis and the leader of the Outcasts. One of the main areas you’ll explore is Washington National Zoo, which will have 11 different biomes in total, along with a brand new mode called Expeditions which involves co-operative challenges. D.C. Outskirts is due in July 2019, so there’s not long to wait at all.
The second episode, Pentagon: The Last Castle, is due in Fall this year and has players entering the famous building to take on the Black Tusk in three new main missions. This is also when the second eight-player raid is due, which involves travelling to a “remote foundry” to take on the True Sons.
Finally, Brooklyn: Homecoming is the third episode, taking place on Coney Island. Someone is “trying to spread the Green Poison Virus”, but the episode isn’t due until early 2020, so it’s still some ways off.
If you’ve not jumped in on The Division 2 action by now, the game will be completely free on all platforms - PC, PS4, and Xbox One - from June 13 to 16. If you want to buy in afterwards, you can take advantage of some discounts of up to 40% until June 24 too.

Give me a game and I will write every "how to" I possibly can or die trying. When I'm not knee-deep in a game to write guides on, you'll find me hurtling round the track in F1, flinging balls on my phone in Pokemon Go, pretending to know what I'm doing in Football Manager, or clicking on heads in Valorant.
