During Gamescom, Ubisoft revealed the official title of The Division 2's next DLC titled Echoes of Central Park.
It will take place in the titular Central Park, but is taking a horror-themed turn. A distress call is coming from inside the park, and The Division agents have no idea what to expect. In sounds like, Central Park has been even more avoided than the Dark Zones, so no one knows what could be inside or what's happened since the outbreak started.
Ubisoft specifically wants players to experience fear as the enemy. What that means for gameplay will be revealed September 24.
