If you enjoy looter shooters to any extent, chances are that Tom Clancy’s The Division 3’s release date has been on your radar since the highly-anticipated sequel was announced back in late 2023. Ubisoft’s third-person shooter series captures a very particular flavor of the subgenre’s formula, putting us in the role of an elite group of civilian agents fighting to maintain social order in the aftermath of a devastating pandemic.
Survivors in need of help and hostile factions dot its urban sprawls, each firefight rewarding a plethora of weapons that diversify and improve our arsenal. After a well-received second entry kept us battling throughout Washington and New York since 2019, The Division 3 likely aims to shake up our looting, shooting routine.
Tom Clancy’s The Division 3 Release Date
Ubisoft has yet to share any details about Tom Clancy’s The Division 3’s release date, going silent about the sequel following its original announcement.
Back then, the publisher revealed that developer Massive Entertainment was building a team to work on the third entry in the series, with Julian Gerighty being appointed executive producer for the entire brand.

That suggests that, in late 2023, the title was in early development, making us believe that the chances of getting our hands on it in 2025 remain relatively slim.
2026 sounds like a much better candidate for The Division 3’s release but that is, of course, pure speculation on our part. Ubisoft hasn’t talked about the size or scope of the project, and those are two factors that play an important role in how long it takes to get the game out.
Tom Clancy’s The Division 3 Setting and Gameplay
As far as its setting is concerned, whether or not we’ll get to explore a new city currently remains unclear. The previous two titles sent us to New York and Washington D.C, respectively.
If that pattern continues, The Division 3 could see us shooting our way through a location that we’ve yet to visit.
In terms of gameplay, we expect the title to stick to the cover-based third-person shooter formula of its predecessors while bringing both bigger and smaller changes.
It remains to be seen how adventurous Massive Entertainment can get with its design ideas, given how publisher Ubisoft is currently navigating rough waters following a string of underperforming releases and cancelled projects.
Tom Clancy’s The Division 3 Platforms
No official details have been shared yet about The Division 3’s platforms at this time. We currently expect it to release on PC, Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and PS5 Pro. Depending on how powerful Nintendo’s Switch successor will prove, there may be a chance to also see the title arriving on it at some point.
More details about Tom Clancy’s The Division 3, its release date, gameplay, and more will likely be shared as development progresses.
