VIDEO: We got our hands on new game Tom Clancy’s The Division

Welcome to the Dark Zone.

The long-awaited new franchise from Ubisoft, Tom Clancy's The Division, is hitting shelves this March, and we're fairly ruddy excited. We managed to nab a trip over to Malmo, Sweden to be some of the first people in the world to get our paws on it. Check out our video preview below. https://youtu.be/VZcwGOywT_8

After a terrorist chemical attack sweeps through New York city, society collapses and the government has to order The Division to spring into action. A group of sleeper-cell agents that roam among us, they're trained to operate independently of command when all else fails.

I’d love to be a member of the Division. You could just live your normal life while earning a wage, on the off-chance that the world will shut down and you’ll be needed. In that case, I’d just keep the wage. The world would’ve shut down, like. I’d just keep the secret agent dole I’ve accumulated and jog on.

The Division looks promising. The time I spent wandering through dystopian New York got me really excited for the new release. So if you're looking get the most out of it with it's slick co-op gameplay, you'd better get recruiting you're mates now.

The Division comes out in Ireland on March 8 for PS4, Xbox One and PC.
