If you can handle the extreme repetitiveness, The Division 2 provides a well-rounded, dense and - mercifully - functional loot-shooting experience, sprinkled with a few neat ideas you won’t find elsewhere. Those who are looking to dedicate a good chunk of 2019 to this will find plenty to do and even more to shoot, while more casual players can still blast through the enjoyable story, experiment in the Dark Zone, and get their fill of loot before moving on. It won’t win any awards for its storytelling, but unlike Anthem, The Division 2 fees like a game that actually understands how its players interact with it. Cut scenes are kept to a minimum, the plot is rarely more complicated than ‘kill the bad guys’, and the game does its best to get out of the way of you and your buddies having fun. A very strong sequel.
