Ubisoft: The Division’s Active Player Count Returned to Launch Numbers

4.8
Remember The Division? Ubisoft’s 2016 MMOTPS, “Destiny-killer” that went from wildly successful to mass exodus in the span of a month. According to publisher Ubisoft, the online-only game has seen a resurgence, returning back to “daily active users” that were there at launch following Patch 1.4.

Giving a statement to PCGamesNetwork, Vice President of live operations at Ubisoft said “Since the release of patch 1.4, we went back to the daily active users we had at launch, because people were [so impressed].” Further, “people realized we meant what we said and Ubisoft plus developers Massive put time into fixing problems identified by the community.” Ubisoft did not clarify with specific numbers, or what exactly “launch” means in the sentence.

The Division‘s 1.4 patch — released in late October — brought fairly hefty changes to the shooter including features, UI improvements, gameplay changes and much more. Also since then, Survival DLC and Update 1.5 went live for The Division also likely boosting the playerbase.

The Division launched on March 8, 2016 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

Sales would've got people playing the game.

I think the game being on sale helped with the amount of online users because I even had to snag the deal myself.

Me and my friends recently got back into the game. The updates are a welcome change. They really are making the game more fun and challenging as well as fixing the issues.

Now only if they could fix the memory leaks...

I haven't played this since the summer. I grinded too much, and got real bored. Glad to see updates rolling out still.

I haven't played the division since the summer, Glad to see they are still updating the game and most of the fan base seem to enjoy it much more from what it seems.

Haven't touched this game since about 2 weeks after launch. The game just got old and repetitive to quick.

Haven't played this game yet, missing out a tone of game. I'm petty much behind gaming. The DLC sounds so fun to play as well. :/

Not played this game for a while as it seemed to go down hill. Probably won't ever get back into it either lol
