The Division Beta Has Concluded — Here Are The Results
Ubisoft’s open multiplayer beta for their upcoming shooter The Division is over. What was learned over the weekend of testing, and what needs tweaking? Ubisoft isn’t saying, but they are bragging about the number of users registered: a record 6.4 million. That makes this beta test the largest ever conducted for a new IP during this console generation (kind of a narrow category, I see what they did there).
Sounds like a lot, but according to the report, the average Division beta tester logged on for just under five hours of gameplay — spread out over the whole weekend. This is the average, so you can’t say this experiment was exactly full of Dew-fueled all-nighter hardcore bros. Just a third of players tried out the player vs. player mode; most stuck to plain multiplayer.
The official version of Ubisoft’s The Division will launch March 8 for Playstation 4, XBox One and PC.
