'Tom Clancy's The Division' news: Game will not cover Brooklyn; PC version to get better visuals

(Ubisoft)

Even though it has been hit with a number of delays, the buzz about "Tom Clancy's The Division" has been growing steadily and now, it is being compared to "Destiny." However, as other news about the RPG game have emerged, many are stating that the PC version of the game looks much better than the console editions.

"The Division" is currently due to launch on March 8 and land on the PC, Xbox One and PS4. Gamespot states that the world is very similar to what gamers are used to in "Destiny." This much was evident when they attempted to play a complete version of the game where the city of New York is dealing with an outbreak of smallpox, which has been deliberately spread using currency.

As society descends into chaos and looters, crazed militia and looters battle each other and a Division of people are sent in to restore order. In this setting, the player is introduced and has to team up with others to take on enemies. As the player traverses missions that all have a story at its base, they will get to meet others in social media spaces that are quite similar to those in the game "Destiny."

Coming to the quality of the game's visuals, Gamepur states that since "The Division" impressed people at its first showing in E3 2013, the game has improved a lot. However, it goes on to add that PC gamers are going to get the best quality visuals and gamers have already been comparing the console editions to the PC versions.

The setting of the game is also getting a good amount of attention and now, it appears that Brooklyn has been removed from it and will not be seen when it launches. However, the area could end up in the DLC content as it has less story and it appears that the developer, Ubisoft, wanted to concentrate on the story part of the game, which is centered around Midtown Manhattan.
