While players wait to learn more about exactly when they will be getting Update 1.7, they can go ahead and learn more about what it adds to "The Division."
First off, players should know that Global Events will soon be taking place inside the game.
Detailed in an earlier post on the game's official website, these Global Events run for one week and bring modifiers that are designed to customize the experiences players can have. There are also new items for players to collect during Global Events.
The first Global Event is expected to go live not long after Update 1.7 is officially released.
Among the items that players can obtain over the course of a Global Event are pieces of Classified Gear. These pieces of Classified Gear may feature better stats than the ones already available in the game, and players can also enjoy special bonuses for completing sets made up of them.
Commendations are coming to the game as well, and these are new achievements players can aim for. Players who take the time to meet the requirements for Commendations will be given special Patches.
There are other features included in Update 1.7 and some bug fixes and balance tweaks will likely be in there too.
More news about "Tom Clancy's The Division" should be made available soon.
