A new look at the enemies you’ll fight in The Division
With the launch of The Division now only weeks away Ubisoft is sharing a bit more about the enemies our agents will be facing in the streets of New York.The trailer showcases each of the game’s factions. There’s the Rioters, Rikers, Cleaners, Last Battalion, and, of course, The Division itself. While the Rioters’ name is pretty self-explanatory, the Rikers are the escaped criminals from Riker’s Island, and the Cleaners are a group committed to eradicating the small pox disease that has destroyed New York. Meanwhile the Last Battalion looks to be baddest of the bad, an organized military force trying to take New York, even if it means killing everyone else to do it.
