It goes without saying that millions are looking forward to The Division launch. It’s going to be a pretty big deal for Ubisoft and it’s certainly going to make a pretty big deal out of the launch. Fans can join Xbox and Ubisoft for The Division launch event that’s going to take place at Microsoft’s 5th Avenue store in New York City.
Microsoft opened its flagship store in New York City last year. It’s located on 5th Avenue with major fashion brands and the iconic Apple 5th Avenue store for company.
The event takes place prior to The Division’s midnight launch on March 8th, 2016. Fans can join Xbox’s Major Nelson for activities, prizes, gameplay, food, music and more from 9 pm ET March 7th til 1 am ET March 8th, 2016.
Game producer Tony Sturtzel and Game Director Terry Spier from Ubisoft’s Red Storm Studio will also be in attendance. Popular Twitch streamers Futureman Gaming and Swiftor are going to be at the store as well streaming gameplay with fans.
The line will begin at 8 pm ET and the first 200 customers to purchase a copy of The Division will receive a limited edition poster. Those who can’t make it to New York for this event need not worry. Major Nelson says that there are “special plans” for online followers, fans who are interested should keep an eye on his Twitter feed.
