Ubisoft has announced plans to discount The Crew Motorfest and offer a second free trial period less than a month after the game’s release.

Star Wars Outlaws creative director Julian Gerighty will take a new role at Ubisoft once that game is done: executive producer of everything Tom Clancy's The Division. That includes oversight of all the Division-branded games: The Division 2, The Division Heartland, mobile game The Division Resurgence, and, what's this? The Division 3, which Ubisoft casually announced in the press release about Gerighty's new job.
Star Wars Outlaws and The Division 2 studio Massive Entertainment is «actively building a team» for The Division 3 right now, the press release says. As for Gerighty's current project, open world Star Wars game Outlaws, Ubisoft says he «remains fully committed» to it and that he'll «remain on the project through launch» before starting his new role.
The Division 3 is very early in development then, which helps explain the lowkey announcement—there's no trailer or even artwork to share. We've seen similarly concise, early game announcements from other big developers in recent years. Blizzard, for instance, announced last year that it's working on a survival game without giving it a name, a move we interpreted as an effort to recruit talent.
Gerighty's previous credits at Ubisoft include the other main Division games, as well as games from the Splinter Cell and Ghost Recon series of Tom Clancy-branded games, The Crew, and Watch Dogs. He's been with the company for 25 years, spending the past 10 at Massive Entertainment.
The Division and The Division 2 were Ubisoft's take on Destiny 2-style shared world shooters, except near-future military-themed and set in New York and Washington DC rather than space. We liked The Division 2, which released in 2019, although it has never come close to matching the popularity of Bungie's sci-fi FPS, which went free-to-play the same year The Division 2 came out. Third time's the charm?
It'll probably be a while before we hear anything significant about The Division 3, since Massive is only now recruiting the team for it, and Gerighty won't change focus until after Star Wars Outlaws releases. That's supposed to happen sometime next year.

A Limited Edition Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 PS5 bundle has been available for about a month now, though those looking to pick up something less fancy (and less costly) are going to have the option to do that soon enough.
Not long ago it was quietly announced that The Division 3 was in the works at Ubisoft. I don’t think many fans of the series were surprised, seeing as how The Division 2 has been rehashing old seasons as the wind down supporting it as a live service. The Division 3 will certainly be a welcome inclusion, but with two other The Division titles also on the horizon, the third iteration of the series will need to make some hefty changes, especially if it intends to compete with many of the other looter shooters that have risen in popularity.
Ubisoft has outed the existence of The Division 3 — the next game in its looter shooter series. The title is currently in early development, and that's pretty much all we've got to go on. Just to give you an idea of what 'early' means, the team at Massive Entertainment — the lead developer on both of the previous Division games — is now recruiting for the project. So yeah, it's early.
Logitech is adding to its long list of existing racing sim peripherals, by teaming up with Playseat for the second time, to launch the Playseat Challenge X Logitech G Edition. A brand-new lightweight and fully adjustable racing sim chair, the Playseat Challenge X is another option for those looking to create a more immersive racing game experience.
A short forever as only 6 years after being launched, players are now receiving a SEGA Forever End of Service announcement! Back in June of 2017, SEGA announced their inventive idea of SEGA Forever, bringing the iconic classic games you grew up with to your mobile. The app launched with 5 games faithful to their original predecessor, with new releases trickling in every few weeks.
The 3DS housed no shortage of RPGs, ranging from beloved classics to esoteric oddities. While titles in that second category can be easily forgotten, sometimes games just need a second chance in a new market. Case in point, NISA has announced an HD remaster of The Legend of Legacy will hit modern consoles in early 2024.
Yes, The Division 3 is happening, Ubisoft has confirmed in what is a contender for the most nonchalant game announcement of all time.
Tom Clancy’s The Division 3 is officially on the cards. Julian Gerighty, who worked on the previous games before becoming creative director on Star Wars Outlaws, will become executive producer for The Division brand once the sci-fi title is out.
Ubisoft has made another shakeup for one of its core franchises, as Julian Gerighty is now the executive producer for its Division franchise. After shipping Star Wars Outlaws (as its creative director), he's to oversee the "plethora of projects" for the Tom Clancy branded sub-franchise.
Ubisoft sure does love a sequel, and it's now confirmed — in just about as understated a fashion as is possible — that it's got another one in the works, this time in the form of The Division 3.
Ubisoft has confirmed that Tom Clancy’s The Division 3 is in the works, with Massive Entertainment leading development. The French publisher also announced it tapped Julian Gerighty as the new executive producer for The Division brand. He will dive into the new role once his work as creative director on Star Wars Outlaws is wrapped up.
