This is the weekend Ubisoft dedicates to "The Division" as the game will come out for free. It seems like Ubisoft's momentum to keep the success of the "The Division" is maintained well following the recent patch 1.4.

"The Division" patch note 1.4 was released by Ubisoft and the players who got tired of the game suddenly regained interest. The game developer supplements this opportunity by offering a free weekend play for the title. Furthermore, they released "The Division" at a 50 percent discount.

This is the perfect time for gamers who have not experienced playing "The Division" yet. The free play is open for PC players for the rest of the weekend. Once the players decide that the gameplay is worth their time and effort, they can take advantage of the 50 percent discount for a limited time.

"The Division" free weekend play kicks off 6:00 p.m., United Kingdom time, and ends at 9:00 p.m. on December 18. Gamers will be able to experience the base game and get the chance to play the Dark Zone mode. However, the expansion content is not accessible.

In an article by Forbes, the two expansions of "The Division" should have been offered at the free play event. Specifically, the "Underground" and the "Survival" have to be available for free since they can potentially attract more players.

"Underground" focuses on the players' ability to gather loots, which would bring enjoyment to the players. "Survival," on the other hand, is said to be the perfect opportunity for Ubisoft to showcase what "The Division" has to offer. Kitguru wrote that the exclusion of the "Survival" is a "shame," considering that it has gained positive reviews.

In related news, "The Division" is set to have a PS4 Pro support, and will be launched on December 20. The news was just announced by Ubisoft at the State of the Game livestream event.
