It will be a mobile-only release so far for the latest in the “Tom Clancy's The Division” series as announced by Ubisoft last week. In what seems to be a surprise for those looking forward to playing it on the PC and other gaming platforms, this will be a mobile-first release.

“Tom Clancy's The Division Resurgence” is a third person shooter game set in a post apocalyptic open world New York City after a virus outbreak. While it is set in the same open world just like “The Division” and “The Division 2”, it will have its own independent story. The gamer plays the role of an agent of the "Strategic Homeland Division” with a mission to restore peace, to protect civilians against hostile factions, and to help them build a better future.

With the game optimised for mobile gaming platforms, “Tom Clancy's The Division Resurgence” will be more responsive with touchscreen controls and a smoother gaming experience for mobile gamers. As it is a free to play, revenue streams from the game is seen from in-game purchases for gear, guns and mods that players will want when they customize their game character.

There is no release date announce for the game and since it is a mobile game it is playable on the iOS and Android mobile devices with a closed Alpha testing now accepting applications. Some further details in the press release below:
